Alex Stypula has been doing improv and standup since 2010, Pittsburgh is his home and where he cut his teeth in comedy. In 2016 he released his first stand-up album entitled Dolphins Are Garbage. Eventually he stopped talked talking about how terrible dolphins are and moved on to talking about how great horses are. The cheap beer and smoky dive bars of Pittsburgh suited him well, but in 2019 he decided it was time to go somewhere sunnier with more opportunities in comedy and he moved to Los Angeles. He is currently training at UCB and is working on his voice over skills. Alex brings versatility to the stage in improv, he can go big or small, and can play a wide variety of characters. His standup persona is dry, dark, and witty. Prior to moving to LA Alex toured all over the Eastern half of the country, growing as a comedian and meeting some pretty cool people.
