Clare is an actor/director born and raised in Maine, but she moved to NYC to pursue a career in theatre after graduating from the University of Southern Maine with a BA in theatre and a minor in music. Favorite roles include Rosalind in "As You Like It" and CB's Sister in "Dog Sees God." She enjoys reading and tea-drinking in her spare time, as well as stress baking her way through cookbooks. She lives with her fiance, Matthew, and their Tiny Dog, Jasper. Thanks to Mom and Dad for being the best, enjoy the show! #twistednyc 

Wylan Ernst, a student at the School of Visual Arts, currently studies what most call a useless major: Filmmaking. Wylan is a Writer, Producer, Director, Actor, and occasional Stand-Up Comedian. Currently, Wylan produces a monthly sketch comedy show: Bill & Ted’s Excellent Talk Show. Please help this desperate man get slightly famous by subscribing to his YouTube channel @ "Wylan Ernst". After years of making sketches, Wylan one day hopes to become a Writer for Saturday Night Live, or any other show that would be willing to hire him... Acting and assisting with "Twisted" is just another step in achieving that dream! #twistednyc
