Cast and Crew
Chris Barron
ActorChristopher "Pops" Barron, was born on the back lot of MGM studios in 1961. He is the illegitimate grandchild of Harpo Marx and Lucille Ball. Seriously, he is a graduate of the conservatory program at Second City Theatre in Chicago, and has been performing improv, sketch, and stand-up comedy for over 30 years. He is making his Fringe debut, and most probably his finale.
Erin Clarkin
ActorLydia Borchert
WriterLydia Borchert (she/her) has been a lifelong artist but her love of theatre started in the (orchestra) pits. Between visual arts, music, and comedy, you could say she is a bit creatively confused- but it’s not a phase. Known for knowing too much, Lydia is currently working on a musical about aliens and an art series exploring the relationship humans have with farm animals. Check her out as a recurring stage member at Stevie Ray’s Comedy Cabaret as well as a regular at her therapy appointments.
Max Mars
Writer/ActorMax Mars has been doing improv comedy for over 15 years, which is what happens when you build your life around “yes, and” instead of a retirement plan. He studied at The Second City in Chicago, but didn’t graduate—he prefers to think of it as “leaving while still mysterious.” Max also performs stand-up and writes jokes for comics, TV shows, and podcasts, mostly so funnier people will keep hanging out with him. You may have seen him on Conan O’Brien—but that was some other guy. His sketch comedy is weird, clever, and just organized enough to suggest he tried.
