HU XIN
CHIEF IMPROV OFFICER

Angela HU is Acewood’s Chief Improv Officer in Beijing, effortlessly combining her passion for theatre arts with communications training.

Angela’s enthusiasm for improvised theatre began during her studies in Strasbourg, France in 2001. Since returning to China she has, alongside expat theatre troupe Beijing Improv, successfully pioneered the teaching of this previously ‘foreign’ art form to native Chinese people. She is now one of the convenors and coaches of the Peoples’ Republic of Improv, a home-grown China improv troupe based in Beijing, and the first Chinese Improv troupe in China.

Prior to joining Acewood, Angela worked at L’Equipe, one of Europe’s leading sports media groups, where she organised and conducted interviews with numerous athletes and officials. Angela is fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, English and French.
