This New York based musical improv group is made up of two amazingly talented performers, Glennis McMurray and Eliza Skinner. Formed in 2003 for UCB NY’s 3-on-3 compitition, I Eat Pandas is one of the repeating crowd pleasers at the Del Close marathon, where I first saw them get a standing ovation in 2005. Many standing ovations later, at small clubs and larger venues, they consistently blow away my expectations from what is possible from improvised comedy.

I Eat Pandas is my pick for best musical improv group (yes, even over Baby Wants Candy whom Eliza is also a member). The quality if their performance is exceptional and their songs are brilliant and catchy. The only tragic part about I Eat Pandas, is that you’ll never hear those amazing songs ever again.
