Professor Prawns is an emerging practitioner in the field of participatory performance art, with a background in competitive improv theatre, weird performance art and slam poetry.

Mark Silverman is a songwriter and a comedian who lives in San Francisco. He's been featured on National Public Radio and Dr. Demento, and he's played hundreds of shows in the U.S. and the U.K. Mark is single. He is also tall and handsome, he makes lots of money, and he can spit real far. Mark thinks it's odd that people who write their own bios are forced to refer to themselves in the third-person.

Laura Boo hails from the frosty east (Montreal) and now lives in the soggy west (Vancouver). She's a renowned fag hag, a relentless workaholic and a delightful deviant searching endlessly for that place where romance and the mundane realities of passion collide. Publisher of 'zines and chapbooks, producer of video, installation, conceptual performance art and queer dance parties, she is also an activist, educator and closet academic. Her (anti-)poetry explores the personal and political through playful comedics and painful self-exposition. Her brain-children include the media-frenzy-inducing Team Makeout performance series and the chapbooks "Idiotology" and "Pathetic".
