Amy
Amy...her life long dream is dreamt and went! She's a flight attendant full time..and when she's not flying high...she's now leaning to lay low with her new friends..the NITWITS!! Her kids have grown out of the kiddie books and she has found herself moving forward into a new stage in her life...! Where-else can she act out her favorite childrens books like GROVER'S- THERE'S A MONSTER AT THE END OF THIS BOOK...or just outright make an ass of herself and pray someone laughs with her and not just at her! She has found her element here with the NITWITS group...lets just pray they find something with her!!!

Bert
Bjorn Westly:
(Name Anagrammed to protect his children.) Jarl, scholar, mathematician, choreographer, poet, bard, bullsh**t artist. Thinks improv is in the top
three "Biggest Natural High List". Glad his wife is involved. She now
understands the
addiction to the Performing Arts. Geocaching widower and is okay with it.

Beth
Beth is thrilled to be a double-secret platinum member of NITWITS, and swears to protect the integrity of the secret handshake. She feels she has finally found an activity which encourages her God-given silliness. She's usually a theatre widow, (admittedly her own fault since she restarted her husband's acting bug). Her costumes have appeared on stage regularly, (often on her husband) but now she's taking her turn. Her current OCD craze is geocaching, and when she's not out in the woods hunting for tupperware containers full of golf balls, she's probably driving her three kids to various activities. Beth wants to thank the troupe for letting her play.

Brian
Brian is a guy.
Isn't that special enough!
Performed: 5/09/09
Chaz
Christian
If there was anything to tell about Christian Pollak, it'd probably be about his red face or liking of the root beer. Other than that, there's not much there. After all, who needs much more than a red face... or a root beer liking. I'd think nothing else really.
Performed: 4/10/10, 5/29/10
Dawn
Dawn is a girl.
If you don't like it, take it up with Jesus.

Darren
Darren graduated from the University of Kentucky with a Political Science degree. At college, he fell in with a bad crowd, theater people. At 22, he was snubbed by a college improv group; which led to massive depression and many Eeyore impressions. After college he lived on the streets of Los Angeles in a perpetually existential dilemma. While living on Ventura Blvd, he dreamed up a world of NITWITS. His management style can be best described as a cross between the Three Stooges, Ben Franklin, The Donner Party, a street gang leader, and Caligula: Constant chaos with moments of brilliance, while trying to fight off cannibalism, willing to murder any opposition to his rule…but a lot of fun at parties.

Heather
Heather has been acting since birth. She has been known to be a little wild and crazy. Heather blames this on her red hair and the fact that she and her husband own the sports bar, Jekyll and Hyde's in off Highway 29. She has been with NCT since 1996.
Performed: 6/28/08, 8/16/08, 11/15/08, 5/08/09, 4/10/10
Jeff
Jeff was born and raised in Climax, NC (seriously, no joke...stop laughing!) and graduated from Duke in 1988 (you can do the math but he's still younger than Scott). After finishing Vet School at UGA, his first job was here in Newnan where he fortuitously found NCTC. For the last 15 years theatre has been his beloved reality break to preserve his sanity...or insanity as the case may be!
Performed: 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 02/07/09, 03/14/09, 5/08/09, 5/09/09, 06/27/09, 10/03/09, 11/21/09,2/20/10, 4/10/10, 5/29/10
John Paul
John Paul was raised by South American Howler Monkeys. The subspecies of Monkey scientifically named Alouatta belzebul, endogenous to Brazil, found John Paul tied up in a tree where his biological parents left him. They raised him till he hit puberty at 17, at which point John Paul became so unruly and perverse that the Howlers cast him out.
The NITWITS finally found him over a decade later and continue to raise him in the Howler tradition.

Kim
Kim is an alien in disguise from the planet Gelbornia. On Gelbornia, Kim was a princess. Kim, whose real name is Kimalaeshia du Gorbal, came to Earth to find a husband who didn't want he only for her crown.
Performed: 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 5/08/09, 10/03/09, 2/20/10
KC
KC has been in and around NCTC for many years and performed in many areas from acting on stage to playing in the band for musicals. She's a drummer, artist, and a 3D animator...just a well rounded geek chick. KC works as a multimedia designer at The Weather Channel. KC has always loved improv and considers this opportunity to perform with the NITWITS an extreme honor and privilege. Now she has a valid excuse to let her true personality shine through! How righteously awesome is that?
Performed: 6/28/08, 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 2/20/10
Leslie
Leslie is a high powered yuppie screaming her way to the top via Georgia State law school. She originally graduated from UGA with a degree in drama and now graces the Newnan stage with her presence as a NITWIT. She has been seen in such shows as Noises Off and Wit and everyone here is jealous of her spunk and daring do!
Performed: 6/28/08, 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 02/07/09, 03/14/09, 5/09/09, 06/27/09, 10/03/09, 11/21/09, 2/20/10, 4/10/10
Merry
Merry was born and raised in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. She has always had a love for the theatre, which is probably why she's been the #1 fan of NCTC, and a season ticket holder, for years. Merry works at the Magistrate Court, so you'd better behave around her! For relaxation she enjoys doing award winning cross stitch.
Performed: 6/28/08, 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 11/21/09
Rick
Rick is amused by the fact that the NITWITS actually let him perform. Retired from the USAF 10 years ago, Rick's been involved with the theatre in one way or another for about 8 years. He has been seen in a few shows at NCTC, including A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Oliver, Sylvia, and Don’t Hug Me. He is the largest and probably loudest, but not oldest, member of the NITWITS.
Performed: 6/28/08, 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 5/08/09
Robbie
Sarah
Sarah spends her days sculpting the young minds of tomorrow at Northgate High School here in Newnan (scary, I know) but by night she likes to cut loose her wilder side (I just mean as an actress, what were you thinking). On her days off, she likes to spend time with her two little rugrats, Harper and Hannigan, as well as her equally theatrical husband, Spencer.
Performed: 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 02/07/09, 5/08/09, 5/09/09, 06/27/09, 10/03/09, 11/21/09, 2/20/10, 5/29/10
Spencer
Spencer Jordan has been seen in three Newnan Theater productions: A Few Good Men, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and As Bees In Honey Drown. He has thoroughly enjoyed working with everyone at Newnan Theater and is constantly awaiting his next opportunity. He feels very fortunate to have a second theater family outside of his other one at Campbell High School where he teaches theater. Spencer has directed a number of shows at Campbell High and currently building his next season.
Performed: 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 02/07/09, 03/14/09, 10/03/09, 11/21/09, 2/20/10, 5/29/10
Susan
Susan has done it all at NCTC. She's helped build sets, painted, acted, directed, produced, given the lobby a face lift, and even cleaned the toilets. She always said the one thing she would never do was Improv. "That's just scary...there's NO SCRIPT!" So naturally, when Darren said, "you wanna be in an Improv group?", she said, "Sure." She's still terrified, but she says it's worth working through the fear to see what amazing, bizarre, and brilliant ideas her fellow NITWITS come up with. Special thanks to Bert, who said, "...I'll do it if you will.", knowing full well she could not turn down a challenge.

Taylor
Taylor was born on May 16, 1987 in Washington DC.
He was a military brat for the first 13 years of his life so he has lived in a few different places.
He graduated from Newnan High School in 2005 and attended the University of West Georgia for a couple years.
Now Taylor attends Georgia Tech majoring in Industrial Engineering.
Taylor has been involved in drama and theatre for about 8 years.

Trey
“It only makes sense,” Trey once said to himself when contemplating improv acting. “Heck, Trey, you already have split personalities and a propensity for buffoonery!”
“I do not! I just like to talk to myself. And what does propensity mean?"
"How am I supposed to know you are the one who said it."
Performed: 6/28/08, 8/16/08, 10/11/08, 11/15/08, 02/07/09, 5/08/09, 5/09/09, 06/27/09, 10/03/09, 11/21/09, 2/20/10, 4/10/10, 5/29/10
Treyzaro
Bent on destroying Trey, Treyzaro is purely good. Even though he looks all scary and dark, Treyzaro is exactly the opposite of the real Trey. He cares for puppies and flowers and enjoys the simple beautiful things about life. There is nothing he likes more than a relaxing latte or a brisk walk. His favorite music includes Easy Listening and Jazz. You may see Treyzaro giving to the homeless and helping old ladies cross the street.
All in all, a better person than the original.
