Andrew Bright discovered his love for improv at Trinity Western University, where he became part of the comedy improv league after being asked to fill in for a sick player. Five minutes on stage and he knew he was home. “God wires us to be who we are, like what we like, excel at things other people do not. (that’s why I don’t teach math and why my wife takes care of the bills). Hopefully we all find the niche God designed us for, like I did that evening on stage.” Hint: Ask Him.

In 1996 Andrew started The Panic Squad with a group of other improvisors from TWU. “Graduation didn’t seem like a good enough reason to stop doing what we loved.” The rest is history. History full of joy, fear, faith, adrenaline and fulfillment.

Andrew currently resides in Lynden, WA with his incredible wife, Karla and baby daughter Katelyn (born October 12th, 2005!). When not seeking global improv domination with the Squad, Andrew entertains his passion for spreading the joy of Christ through speaking opportunities for various Christian camps, retreats and conferences.

In Andrew's view, the Panic Squad has two goals: to make people laugh very hard, and to help them discover why that laugh is so deep and so real. The Panic Squad is convinced that their strength in improv is ultimately in the Joy of the Lord. "Our job is to display that joy to our audience, to display an energy and enthusiasm for life that causes people to say, 'where can I get some of that?!'"

Been looking for laughter in all the wrong places? There is no better life than one centered on Christ. There is no greater joy than to shine brilliantly with God's love among the murky majority. Take it from three funny fighting men. Still wondering? Take it from God's own word.
