Allan Tyson

Allan while trying to grow up questioned everything. While doing this he studied topics from scuba diving, flight (A little to young), photography, psychology, computers, investing, electronics, construction (Poorly), comedy, and many more topics. These studies have helped him see that humor makes life go much smoother regardless of how bad it seems. He hopes to help others laugh and maybe pick up this philosophy. https://www.youtube.com/@allantyson0513

Annabel McConnachie

Wise beyond her years, Annabel made her professional debut at the age of 3 as the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera at Australia’s internationally acclaimed hub of the arts, the Sydney Opera House (her performance inspiring its name). She then went on to take the city by storm in roles that include but are not limited to - the landlord in Rent, the titular number 13 in 13 the musical and the canine antagonist in Cats (‘Dog’). For her roles in these critical and financial successes, Annabel then went on to earn herself 8 Ausony awards (Australian Tonys). Annabel is humbled to be taking the UCB stage tonight. PS. Annabel would like to stress that if you are reading this and aren’t Australian you have no proof that none of the above is true, and questioning the validity of these credits is therefore a hate crime. @gleeknumerouno
