Cancelation policy
We know life happens, but no-shows deprive other folks of a chance to learn and makes it hard for us to pay our amazing trainers. We can offer a 50% refund if you cancel by Tuesday 26 August at 10pm. After that, you will be charged full price. (or you may find a replacement who can take your place).

BIO
Adrien Pellerin is an NYC-based actor, improviser, producer, pianist and musical director. He has served as musical director for Baby Wants Candy and Shamilton all over the world for many years, including for BWC’s scripted hit show Thrones! as well as our runs at Adelaide Fringe, Edinburgh Fringe, the Kennedy Center and in New York City at UCB, BCC and Caveat. His work has appeared on Comedy Central, Adult Swim and Funny or Die. He performs sketch comedy and musical improv regularly in New York City and at festivals around the world. Adrien returns for his third trip in Geneva, and will be at the Edinburgh Fringe prior to arriving.
Baby Wants Candy is one of the most popular and celebrated comedy ensembles in the world. Currently, BWC has open runs in Los Angeles, New York City, and Chicago, as well as an international touring company with over 4000 improvised musicals and counting! BWC has performed and led workshops for thousands in the US, Asia, Europe and Australia, our scripted shows have been translated into 11 languages (including French and German!), and have enjoyed 9 fully sold out Edinburgh Fringe runs. Both BWC and their spinoff show Shamilton sold out in previous years and will be returning again this year. Our style combines what we consider are the best parts of UCB and iO, both institutions at which we performed and taught for years.
