Rick Lewis has been performing professionally since the age of eight. Hooked by these early experiences in front of audiences Rick continued to work professionally as an actor, dancer, acrobat, and musical theater performer until he was in his early twenties. He then attended Webster University’s renowned theater arts program. He left Webster to join the cast of a Broadway touring production of the hit musical Barnum, with which he traveled internationally for a nine-month period, playing in over 70 cities.
It was Rick’s experience with Barnum that led him to build his own solo physical comedy act, incorporating his skills in theater and circus arts with his background in dance and athletics.
At the same time, a strong interest in personal growth led Rick to begin training as a personal development coach under the guidance of his own mentor. In time, he began to weave his comedic skills and growing experience as a personal growth trainer into a fully developed program that uses comedy and theater to help educate, motivate, and inspire individuals and groups to achieve greater clarity, professionalism, and satisfaction in their business and personal lives.
Rick has authored three books on personal growth, his observations of human behavior in relationship to his experience with audiences from all industries and walks of life. This formed the basis of his latest book, "7 Rules You Were Born to Break," and is now the core focus of his corporate meeting presentations.
Rick currently lives in Vancouver, BC with his wife and three children, travelling extensively throughout North America giving presentations for corporate events and conferences.
