What can be said about Tyler Ray Kendrick that hasn’t already been said about the Arby’s on McKnight Road? For more than a decade, Kendrick has taught improv, stand-up, and comedy-based courses to over 300 students from all walks of life. His approach blends humor with purpose—helping students build confidence, sharpen communication skills, and learn to think on their feet. But beyond the punchlines, his classes foster genuine human connection, professional growth, and stronger communities. He’s brought his sharp wit and commanding stage presence to comedy hubs like New York City, Los Angeles, and, naturally, the cultural capital of Bridgeville, Pennsylvania. A four time member of Pittsburgh Magazine’s Best Improv Team The Latchkey Kids and two time Best Comedian winner. In 2025, he was named one of the New Pittsburgh Courier’s 40 Under 40, recognizing his impact both on and off the stage. Kendrick has built a reputation for clever writing, magnetic performances, and deeply human humor. Known for being “tall, dark, and a grandson,” Kendrick describes himself as a Gen X soul trapped in a millennial body. He continues to use comedy as a tool for connection, healing, and good old-fashioned fun.
