nicole weaver (directing performer) i am nicole weaver!  i perform with freeze frame pretty much all the time, and direct people – hence my title.  i also act a lot and can be seen doing so on tv shows like law and order: svu, one life to live, late night w/ conan o’brien, and the view.  also in print ads and commercials for things like mtv, playtex, french vogue, and the like.  i really hope i get to see you at a show, anyone who reads all about me deserves to also come see me.

rob camerino (directing performer) people know me as “the cat” for my amazing reflexes.  i hope to one day adopt a highway. i learned under armando diaz (ucb tv, the “armando”) at the magnet theater in nyc.  i have performed in nearly all ffi shows, 2 performances in nyc.  i do peform with the popular vocal quartet DARK and with the rock band “the trubadors”.  i WILL get a degree in music from ramapo, starting in the fall.  that make me better than you?  maybe.
