About

I Eat Pandas is Glennis McMurray & Eliza Skinner, two NY & LA-based actresses, writers and comedians.  In 2007 they were named Best Improv Group at NY’s ECNY Awards and were again nominated in 2008 for Best Musical Act.  Though I Eat Pandas is known for their sharp musical improv skills (both ladies also perform with the NY cast of Baby Wants Candy) they are making a name for themselves on camera as well with a string of promos they wrote and star in for Showtime’s The Tudors.  www.poptudors.com

NY Daily News’ Sean McCarthy calls I Eat Pandas the “best musical improv either side of the Hudson” and The Onion marvels at their skills saying, “If improv seems like magic to the untrained eye, I Eat Pandas would probably appear to be levitating over the Grand Canyon.”  Comedy Central’s Insider Blog said of their performances in the 2008 Fringe Festival hit Gem & The Holographs, “Glennis McMurray as Jem/Jerrica Benton and Eliza Skinner as Pizzaz carried the show with their sweet singing voices and sharp comedic timing.”

I Eat Pandas performs to sold out houses every month at NY’s Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre.  Check their schedule for more info.
