Yehuda Fisher is an actor who was born and raised in Toronto (and the suburbs, for a brief but unremarkable time). He has trained at York University, Second City and studied with people such as Tom Todoroff, Debra Joy and Michael Kennard. Over the past few years, Yehuda has rekindled his love of acting, appearing in short films, music videos and theatrical productions. Most recently he appeared as Ronny in Welcome to the Moon, Jim in A Lonely Impulse of Delight, and the Smoker in Babel Rap (Panfish Productions) and in Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre (V-Day Toronto). Recent film/TV include In The Can, A Well Lit Life and Dual Suspects. Upcoming this Sept, you can see him in the world premier of The 3rd Degree (Chicken Coop Productions).

PAN is a poet who's enjoyed much success touring and competing in poetry slams through Canada and the U.S. He helped represent Toronto in 2008 at the Rustbelt Regional Poetry Slam (coaching the 2009 team) and in 2009 at the Canadian Festival of Spoken Word and at the QEW Regional Slam. He served as Asst. Artistic Director for the 2009 Rustbelt Slam in Toronto and is the Slam-Master/Artistic
Director of BAM! the Toronto Youth Slam. PAN is currently a member of the Slam Fam Poetry Collective and the Toronto Poetry Project, a group focused on nurturing and promoting the spoken word scene in Toronto through events, slams and workshops. His poetry has been published and he has one chapbook - Pen to Paper, and one Poetry CD - Mouth To Mic.

Both are the same guy who's also a musician who lives in Toronto with computers, quills, books and a dozen instruments... almost. He's been in the Toronto arts scene for years, both entertaining and terrorizing audiences around the city - depending on who you ask. Formerly he hosted and produced Art Attack, a weekly arts and entertainment magazine show for CHRY 105.5 FM and the very successful series WordJam: Poetry/Music Fusion Playtime.
