Chris Trew’s Summary

I founded the sketch comedy group "Studio8.net" in the summer of 2000 - we are currently based out of Los Angeles and have been featured on G4, Tom Green, and the Wall Street Journal. We are also one of You Tube's first creative partners.

I also co-founded The New Movement Theater, a live comedy venue and training center based in Austin, Tx. I perform improv, sketch, and stand-up comedy here multiple times a week. I've appeared in almost every major comedy festival in North America.
