Erika Eldrenkamp
she/her
Washington Improv TheaterErika usually only picks up hobbies that are walking distance from her home, so it says a lot that she signed up for an improv class when it was two full Metro stops away.
To the surprise of literally everyone who knows her, Erika signed up for an improv class at WIT in 2021, needing a reason to leave her basement apartment. She got through most levels, including some FIST and Improvapalooza appearances, before switching her focus to acting to try out knowing her lines in advance. Despite discovering a love for Shakespearean and Greek tragedies (spoiler alert: everyone dies), Erika missed the way improv worked her brain and made her way back to finish the curriculum.
Outside of the improv she’s happily back to doing, Erika can be found correcting her girlfriend’s pronunciations at IKEA, playing Wingspan, and talking to her dog.
