Sam Skolnik

Sam Skolnik is super famous among his parent’s friend group. Seriously, if you go back to Petaluma, California and ask any middle-aged person if they know Sam Skolnik and they’ll be like, “Oh that short kid whose parents won’t stop talking about that Playstation commercial he did with a live bear?” And then you’ll be like, “Yeah, well he trained real hard at the Groundlings and now he’s on a house team at the Westside Comedy Theater called There Will Be Snacks and has an indie comedy troupe called Grasping at Straws and he won’t shut up about it.”

Nick Crosby

Nick Crosby began performing stand-up and sketch comedy in 2011 and graduated from the improv training program at Westside Comedy Theater in 2019. He originally hails from Bakersfield, CA, which you shouldn’t hold against him, but also, I get it if you do. Nick also has an excellent asthma inhaler impression, which he has used as a party trick since 4th grade. Please ask him about it.

Lish Bliss

Lish Bliss was nearly born into a pack of wolves in the Midwest which explains her knack for barking and sniffing people’s butts to say hello. The hunting of her dreams led her to LA where she became a classically trained actress and a director, graduating from LACC’s Theatre Academy. She also studied improv, standup and sketch at places like iO West to M.i.’s Westside Comedy Theater. She plays with the agents of Mission IMPROVable and is now delighted to eat the stage with There Will Be Snacks. Whenever you hear a bark or howl, consider for a moment that it may be the one and only, Lish Bliss. Awoooo. Follow her scent on IG: @lishbliss

Katy Foley

Katy Foley is from Chicago’s Southside. Daughter of two lawyers, acting became critical from a young age. She trained at Second City and NYU Tisch.  She ran a marathon and became part of an emmy  winning campaign. She booked her first ABC guest star because of a faulty water bottle.

Trevor Tevel

Trevor Tevel (rhymes with bell) has been in a relationship with improv for over 11 years, and started at this very theater! He has trained at the Westside Comedy Theater, Groundlings, UCB, iO West, and The Improv Space. Trevor also completed the sketch programs at Groundlings and UCB, which gave him the tools to develop pilots for A&E and Comedy Central. Trevor has toured the country performing improv and more. You can catch him performing regularly with the award-winning short form troupe – Mission Improvable.
