Search Engine Improv is Cal Keefe-Perry, Law Tarello, and John Forrest Thompson. They are an improv comedy trio working out of Rochester, NY to create innovative improv shows, put on top-notch performances, connect creative people together, and share the benefits of spontaneous improvisation with others.

SEI was founded in 2009 by Law Tarello (an NYC ex-patriot Broadway actor and SUNY Brockport Improv Professor) and Callid Keefe-Perry (a storyteller and poet from Boston). Soon after its inception SEI added Chicago native and member of famed "windy city" theatre company – iO Chicago (Improv Olympic), John Forrest Thompson. All three performed individually in other Rochester improv groups before finding each other.

Three man comedy team Search Engine Improv (SEI) combines the best of Chicago and New York City styles of Long-Form improvised performance. Constantly working to develop not only their skills of improvisation, but also innovative approaches to performance, SEI creates uniquely styled shows, each an exciting exploration of ways that long-form improvisation can be used to create compelling (and hilarious) theatre. Having toured extensively SEI has made a name for itself and helped put Rochester on the map of the national improv scene. They have been performing locally with multiple monthly shows since 2010, including special appearances co-headlineing City Newspaper's 1st Annual Cultural Crawl, guest-starring with The Second City in Geva Theatre Center's Summer Spectacular, and creating and producing the FALL BACK COMEDY FEST which was held at their current home base The Space, a performance venue/studio in the Hungerford Building which SEI built and maintains.

In addition, SEI offers the opportunity for adults to act like little kids again by learning the skills needed for successful improvised performance through their own brand of fun, positive and fast-paced instructional Classes, Intensives, and Workshops. All three members of SEI coach Harold teams which regularly perform at Harold Nights. Whether you're a seasoned performance veteran or you never stepped foot on a stage SEI has something for you.

Locally SEI can be seen performing and teaching at The Space, 1115 East Main St. Door 2-Floor 2.

"I was working at Godiva's clothing store on Monroe Avenue when the credit union opened just down the street; so I decided to use them for my checking and savings accounts. Everyone there was friendly and community-oriented. Then I needed a used car loan and they helped with that too. Most importantly, in 2004, I got my mortgage through them, a 30-year-fixed at less than 6 percent interest. It took about a year to secure because the house had to be rehabilitated but they helped me discover the Southwedge Planning Committee to make it happen. It was exciting. They also helped my wife, who is from Colombia (South America), establish credit. In the meantime, they've helped me with my second and third car loans. I like the fact that they're in the neighborhood and when you walk in, the atmosphere just feels friendly. One of my friends had her artwork displayed on the walls. The credit union has helped me a lot and I've always referred my friends there."
