Shora Hassan
Showrunner
Played FRAN
Shora Hassan is a writer and humorist originally from Fort Worth, Texas. She is an alum of NYU’s Dramatic Writing program. Her entertainment career started in late night production at numerous Comedy Central shows, but she has ended up on the business and legal affairs side of it in hopes of becoming an executive. She is so thrilled to channel more of her creativity again by getting to be a part of Our Bar. When she's not scheming on her dreams, she's hanging out with her dog Ozzy or reading about conscious creation.
Jess Levinson
Played ODIN, SAM
Jess Levinson is a NYC-based nerd who occasionally performs in shows when the need arises. He’s done plays, musicals, staged readings, and comedic bits at parties that go on for way too long, but his breakout role was as “Background Character” in a crowd scene in the pilot of HBO’s “The Leftovers”. He was also in a student film called “Final Cut” back in 2014 which, inexplicably, can now be rented on Amazon Prime Video.
Writer, "Animorphs"
Erin is very excited to be performing in an Irish bar! She’s technically only half Irish but fits many Irish stereotypes. Her first name means Ireland and her last name starts with a “Mc,” she has 9 siblings, randomly finds 4 leaf clovers on a regular basis, and she really really loves potatoes.
