Allen C. Gardner
To call Allen C. Gardner and George Clooney BFFs is to make an egregious understatement. Clooney has often referred to Allen as his "other, more awesome half". Allen has often referred to Clooney as his "buddy who constantly takes notes while in my presence". Oh, those two! Delightful. In between epic badminton tournaments and chugging Slurpees with his bestie George, Allen somehow found the time to devote to his new play "Dudes Do Stuff". Allen has been acting, writing, producing, and directing for most of his life, but it was particularly gratifying for him to get cast by himself in this play. Allen formed his film production company, Old School Pictures, in high school. The group recently premiered their tenth and most ambitious film, "Daylight Fades", and are gearing up to make the festival rounds. For more on the film, go to daylightfades.com. Allen would like to thank his kickass cast, everyone who's helped to make this play a reality, and his family and friends for always supporting him. Allen can be contacted at allen_oldschoolpictures.net. He is currently seeking solid theatrical and commercial representation as well as literary representation. Feel free to, like, totally take care of that for him. Great, thanks!

Gabe Arredondo
After receiving a masters degree in underwater basket weaving at the prestigious SJCC (google it), Gabe decided to take the road less traveled; move to Los Angeles and become a professional waiter. Having been in Los Angeles for a few months Gabe soon realized that waiting tables could not put food on his table. He took up acting, and he was good at it. Within six months Gabe was adopted by the Pitt-Jolie family. All was good until he broke the news to Pappa Pitt that he did not want to move forward in the family business, Pappa I just want to sell Lemon Garlic Chicken and give absolute guest satisfaction! Gabe cried as he ran from the Pitt-Jolie estate. He was disowned and left to the ravages of the young Hollywood restaurant community. Fast forward to the present Gabe continues to wait tables, but only for fun. He hopes that one day he can make enough money from acting that he can just wait tables. Currently you can see Gabe wait tables on the weekends at the Grand Lux Café. He is still acting as his day job. Gabe is excited to be involved in Dudes Do Stuff. If anyone wants to help Gabe in the acting game email him at gabe.arren_gmail.com. Remember everyone has a dream!!

Adam Burns
Adam Burns once agreed, while in a drunken haze, to participate in any bit of nonsense Allen Gardner threw his way. He signed a lifetime contract to that effect. He is beginning to seriously regret this. Also, Adam Burns may or may not be a walrus.
