Her regional credits include: Jersey Boys (Mary, Mountain Theatre Company, Airline Highway (Zoey,Swine Palace Theatre), and Voices from the Bayou (Paige, Swine Palace Theatre). Fun fact: she cannot lick her own elbow but has not yet tried anyone else's.

Since moving to Chicago, Brianna has completed the Grad Revue program at The Second City Training Center, worked on several short films, and tried almost every coffee shop on the north side (Pedestrian Coffee is her favorite). Recent credits include It’s Giving Tree at The Second City Training Center and I’ll Be Stoned for Christmas with Two Chairs Theatre Co. Brianna is also a part of the sketch groups Hello My Name Is… and Void Time. She would like to thank Grant and Chloe for the opportunity to be a part of such a collaborative process and the cast of Destroy All Evidence for the laughs!

Grant Batdorff

Grant previously served as president of SPAP Sketch Comedy in Blacksburg, Virginia, where he wrote for, performed in, or directed six sketch comedy revues over his four year tenure.

Grant has poured countless hours of attention and care into Destroy All Evidence! and has had the time of his life working with the most talented cast of performers he has ever met. He is also more grateful than words could ecapsulate for the effort and artistic eye of his assistant director, Chloe. Grant only hopes that you will have as much fun watching the show as he's had making it.
