The best looking thing on you is him. Sure, anyone can shop at stores so exclusive you need to know a handshake to even get to the phone booth that requires a unique seven-digit passcode that activates an underground store that can only be seen with hand-crafted glasses. But he does it all for you.He’s the guy who gets shoe shines and straight razor shaves, tailored tee shirts and custom-made cardigans. He is always fashionably late, but his fashion is always ahead. And he always looks good for you. Always.Erik is from Fort Wayne, IN, he has also performed with See You Thursday improv troupe in Columbus, OH for the past 2 years. He has modeled as Superman for DC Comics, choreographed a champion lip sync team at Purdue, has written, illustrated and acted in corporate sale training materials and has animated for Super Ego Industries/Funny Or Die. He has also performed standup comedy in Columbus, OH.

His next trophy is you. A typical date with Ryan starts with the game winning shot at the state championship basketball game followed by celebratory milk shakes and apple pie with, you, the prom queen at the town diner. After that it’s to the fair, where he effortlessly wins every small stuffed teddy bear needed to trade up for the large one you secretly want.Then it’s off to Lookout Point in his drop-top Chevy, where on the way he stops to fix an elderly lady’s flat tire. Of course, you both make it to the top…just in time for the fireworks.Hailing from St. Mary’s, OH, Ryan has also been a member of See You Thursday improv troupe in Columbus, OH for the past 2 years. He has acted in Oklahoma!, Lost In Yonkers and Happy 9/11 and Other Completely Non-Offensive Tales. He has also performed standup comedy in Columbus, OH and has animated for Left Of Center sketch comedy.

- The Guy Next Door
He has all the sugar you'll ever need. He’s equal parts low-maintenance and high-confidence with a heaping helping of honesty, all topped off with a million-dollar smile and a dash of spontaneity. Add to that a mix of ambition, determination and dedication and you get a likeable guy who’s not afraid to try anything at least once. For a guy next door, you’ll hardly ever find him at home. But when you do, hold on tight. Originally from St. Louis, MO, Matt is also a member of See You Thursday improv troupe, performing across Columbus, OH for the past 3 years. He was also a founding member of Not From Concentrate improv troupe, with which he performed for 3 years. He has performed in Full Frontal Nudity’s completely improvised full-length play, The Greatest Play Ever Written in the History of the World…Ever!, and has performed in The Twinight Zone II at MadLab Theater.

- The Sensitive One
He'll listen to you so hard. Mike’s like that best friend you had in college that really understood you. He’s the one when you needed a shoulder to cry on, who brought extra tissues and ice cream, but when you finally realized that so many guys just wanted your body and that Mike was the only one who actually listened—who actually cared—it was too late and he’d moved away to find himself.But then 10 years later you finally found him and you promised yourself you’re not going to let him get away this time…so you move in, start a family and grow old together. That guy.Mike, a native of Groveport, OH, is also a member of See You Thursday improv troupe, with which he’s performed across Columbus, OH for 3 years. He has acted in shows such as Divide & Conquer: Big Yellow, Big Green at MadLab Theater and a few other professional gigs including “Manager” in a sexual harassment training video for the state of California. He was also 2nd Tenor for The Singing Buckeyes Barbershop Chorus.
