Profile for Bryan L. Cohen

One of Bryan L. Cohen’s first acting gigs was in his 4th grade class production of The Sword in the Stone, sharing the limelight with the now famous Brendan Fraser. This was at the American School of the Hague where Bryan spent a good part of his childhood. Back then, Holland had two TV channels which only aired in the evenings. With little to do during the day when not in school, he and his older brother entertained themselves by putting on shows and performing for friends and family. From this, Bryan’s passion for theater emerged.

Although Bryan holds a BS in Civil Engineering from Clarkson University and spent 13 years as an environmental engineer, he has never strayed from perusing his true passion. For more than 20 years, Bryan has been involved with productions as an actor, producer, teacher, and assistant director. Productions include stage, environmental theater, children’s theater, film, radio commercials, public awareness programs, and comedy improv. Bryan has been performing comedy improv professionally since 1988 with New York City’s Mission: Improvable. He received his teacher training certificate in the Michael Chekhov acting technique from MICHA in 2005.
