Emily Candini

Teaches at The Miles Stroth Workshop

Emily Candini is a California native that has been performing for over 20 years.

Obsessively in love with comedy since the age of two, she has always known her path. After years of modern and classical theater she moved to Chicago to study improvisation, writing and sketch with The Second City, iO Chicago and Annoyance theaters. After six years of writing and acting in exactly one million original shows and improvising in just over a fafillion more shows, she moved to Los Angeles where she studied at the UCBLA.
Emily has won many useless awards including a Ducky (Annoyance Theater) and Del Close Awards (iO Chicago).

In the past she has traveled the country and abroad performing in improv and comedy festivals, including Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago and The Del Close Marathon.

In 2010 Emily played Karen in the film All My Friends Are Funeral Singers which went to the Sundance and SXSW Film Festivals.
Since arriving in Los Angeles Emily can be seen performing at The Second City, iO West and the UCB Theaters.
