Kamin trained many of Hollywood’s notable actors in the art of physical comedy. He created the comedy sequences for the movies Chaplin and Benny and Joon. He also trained Robert Downey Jr. and Johnny Depp for their award-winning performances. Kamin has written “Charlie Chaplin’s One-Man Show,” a book that details the secrets of his comedy.
Throughout his career, Kamin has performed at festivals, theaters and colleges nationally and internationally. In his “Comedy in Motion Show,” Kamin incorporates audience interaction as he “exposes” the secrets of magicians. He performs sequences based upon situations that audience members of any age will relate to, such as getting into an exclusive restaurant. In all of his shows, Kamin blends comedic timing with physical spectacles.
