And last, but certainly not least in our lineup of new cast members, meet Roan! 👯‍♀️

Back in the 90s, a young Roan Howard decided to try out for high school theatre. Not because he was talented, but because there were only three guys and about twenty girls. With those odds, he figured he had a decent shot at landing a role and, more importantly, a hot date.

Roan did, in fact, land a role: The Dentist in Little Shop of Horrors (again, only three guys). As for the ladies, it turns out the math is stupid.

What he did gain was relentless ridicule from his friends for being a “thespian,” a word they definitely didn’t understand but used with confidence anyway.

Naturally, Roan responded the only reasonable way, by disappearing for a couple decades. During that time, he committed to a rigorous routine of Taco Bell, cold showers, and confidently misunderstanding self-help books.

Then, in early April, for reasons no one fully understands (probably a midlife crisis), he saw an ad for Fake Friends and decided to try again.

So here he is, older, slightly wiser, and finally realizing that maybe it was never about being good, smooth, or even prepared, just the willingness to show up… especially for a bad idea like this.

Stay tuned for our upcoming shows this summer and more exciting announcements! 🪩

Hitting you with another one of your brand new FAKE FRIENDS! 👯‍♀️

Meet Layla! ❤️

Layla Rivera is 22, born and raised in Kearney, Nebraska, and still here. She is a Product Specialist and Salesperson at Midway Chevrolet, Buick and GMC. Which means she’s professionally trained in talking to strangers and committing to a bit. While Layla is new to Fake Friends, she was captain of her high school improv team that won state. So yes, she peaked early but is working on a comeback. She loves motorcycles, music, books and making bold choices with absolutely no plan.

Stay tuned for our new FAKE FRIENDS and other exciting announcements! 🪩

After our second round of auditions, we were able to add THREE new Fake Friends to our roster! 👯‍♀️ We will be announcing them throughout the week!

First, we have Billy!

A wild Billy has appeared and is ready to get back into the world of improv. Originally from Omaha, Billy came to Kearney to get a degree in Acting and Graphic Design at UNK. At school, he got madly addicted to theatre and started exploring many sorts of ways to be creative from acting, art, script writing, voice acting and more. Now being in the real world, Billy has pursued the chance to make his own creations and create whatever comes to mind. With Fake Friends, Billy will be able to tap into his crazy side to bring to the stage something weird and new that even Billy won’t be able to see coming.

Stay tuned for our new Fake Friends and other announcements! ❤️

And last, but certainly not least GEORGE!! 🥂

George decided to get out of his comfortable and colorless world and chart new waters in the improv scene. He has felt an urge to break out of his shell and discover his creative side, something which may have been buried for too long. Although he is not sure what he will find on the road to self-discovery. He hopes to use improv to be more himself and sees his experience with Fake Friends as a doorway for greater authenticity in his daily interactions. He is not sure where the journey will take him but will enjoy the ride anyhow.

Stay tuned for more behind the scenes footage and our show announcements! ❤️
