So who are these people?

AMANDA COHEN has been painting people for about ten years. She started out as a clown in Pittsburgh, but after moving to Chicago in 1996, she focused on face and body painting. When started getting more calls for face painting than she could handle, she enlisted the help of two close friends, Emily and Noah. The three of them have worked on several theatrical projects together, including improv shows, new scripts, and an original puppet show, "Marvelous Marvin's Mother Goose Mistake," for the Chernin Center for the Performing Arts.

EMILY DUGAN has been working with children of all ages for more than five years in both public schools and private institutions, and she has earned her substitute teaching certificate. Her specialty is encouraging creativity through friendly competition. Her degree is in the fine arts, and she has taught dance and theater games to children ages 2 to 16, and adults of all ages. She is currently the Theater Coordinator for the Beverly Arts Center. Emily provides a casual but controlled atmosphere for learning, play, and social interaction.

FINE POINT PRODUCTIONS was established by Amanda Cohen in 1998 as an event planning company. She has produced several conventions and theatrical events, including ALCON: The Weird Al Yankovic Fan Convention; The Improv Challenge, a competitive improv show; Sharko Bizarre's Gong Show; and Playing With Matches, the Improv Singles Party. With the combined skills of its primary members, plus talent available from some of Chicago's finest performers, Fine Point Productions offers entertainment for events of all sizes.
