Marty introduced Cesar to the Second City Theater and encouraged him to take classes there. Cesar followed his teacher's advice and has been on a wonderful journey ever since that includes having studied at the world-famous iO Theater. At iO (formerly "ImprovOlympic"), he has had the chance, pleasure, and honor to study, befriend, and perform with many talented people that are great staples in the improv community in Chicago and around the world, not to mention the entertainment industry as well.

One of these people was the late great, Del Close. Del directed and mentored Cesar and eventually changed the way he viewed the art of Improvisation.
