.verma is NOT to be trusted. This menace has been arrested no less than 2 times for collecting all of the city’s rats. DO NOT ENGAGE. He has been collecting them to command a formidable, medium-sized rat army. When Angad’s not writing & performing for “Don’t Tell Dada,” he’s performing on “Best of Annoyance Sketch” and using his natural charm to recruit the rats of Chicago. If Angad asks for peanut butter, do NOT provide it - he uses it for the recruitment package for the army rats. Peanut butter is their Dodge Charger. Just wait him out; he will soon run out of rats due to high turnover. Also, Angad is a 2026 Victor Wong fellow.

Maggie has been arrested for arson. She tried to burn down Crumble Cookie because they, as she put it, “are trying to damn hard.” Maggie likes the simple life. A nice warm chocolate chip cookie in one hand, a book of word searches in the other, and all while listening to the couple outside her building argue about what they are to each other. Besides being a writer and perform for “Don’t Tell Dada,” Maggie is apart of two improv teams, The Fairly Oddmothers and Big Ol’ Mini Van. She is also apart of the digital sketch group “Sketchy As Hell.” 🔥

has been arrested for vehicular manslaughter. Aaron is a rebel to the established social structure—he does his grocery shopping when it’s convenient to him, for example. His clothes are rarely an indication of his career aspirations. He only waits when the thing he’s waiting for is worth waiting for. In addition to being a writer and performer for “Don’t Tell Dada,” Aaron performs dramatic improv at Theatre Momentum and is the producer of his own sketch comedy troupe “Now That’s What I Call Sketch.” Aaron is a safe driver in real life.
