Originally educated in Oxford, Jim came from the UK. He is relatively new to the improv scene, but he contrived to get into the tDAMs using a combination of jedi mind tricks, psychology, auto-suggestion and hypnosis. In 1984 his promising early stage career was tragically cut short due to a suspicious fire in the Appleton Village Hall three days before opening night of 'Lady of the Gamp - A Edwardian Music Hall Extravaganza'. To this day he's been unable to bring himself to listen to the song, 'All me Life I wanted to be a Barrer Boy'.

Ashley hails from Australia but has learnt to speak English surprisingly quickly since moving to Amsterdam only a few years ago. He came to Amsterdam with no job, no house and no good reason. Ashley has improvised everything from hour long rock operas to the history of the universe in thirty seconds. He once did a scripted play but fortunately his fellow actor missed her cue, so he got to improvise. He enjoys performing Shakespearean improv, mostly because you don't have to make any sense.

Stuart was born in England but has lived in Holland ever since he replied to a job advertisement without checking which country the company was located in. Several years later he is over the confusion and still in possession of both his kidneys. Stuart's first taste of improv was as an audience member forced to take part in a sing-song at an improv show. Later, Stuart followed the advice of his physiologist and took up improv himself to get over the trauma.

Steven is originally from England and first got into improv after seeing it performed at Improv Inferno in Ann Arbor, Michigan where he got very drunk with the actors and actresses after the show. As well as being an improv performer he is an improv musician, playing a variety of instruments.

Woman of mystery - Bio coming soon

John was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. He considers himself well-suited to desert life as he often feels chilly and has an unusual fondness for cacti and other succulents. He took an improv class in fall 2010 because the idea of it seemed scary, and now he is a gleefully addicted improv enthusiast. He sees many elements of improv as an instruction manual for life, especially the values of acceptance, authenticity and recognizing the creative brilliance of those around you.
