Jessica Zodrow (Debbie) has been acting since the age of six. She hails from the west coast, where she received her B.A in Theatre Arts from Southern Oregon University. She is currently in the Big Apple getting her M.A in Theatre Education from NYU, and she hopes to one day open her own school where theatre is used as a tool for self expression, social justice, and community change.
Ehren Ebbage (Rob) has dabbled in film, theater, and television a handful of times. Most notable was his appearance on Court TV; he played the part of a murder victim and impressed the director with his ability to lie very still in the middle of the street. Fearing that he might be typecast, Ehren pursed roles as living people and landed a cameo in the indie film Pizza Girl. Mostly he just writes, records, and performs music. In fact, the soundtrack for Wage Slaves uses every single song from his album Ten Cent Souvenir, which can be found on his website and downloaded on iTunes.
