Dominique Gagnon is a Montreal-based actor, improviser, PhD candidate in communication, and occasional writer and video editor. She’s been part of two Montreal Improv house teams (Chesterfield, 2025; Horse Fire, 2026) and regularly performs in community shows and independent productions, as well as local and international improv festivals (Le Grand Yes And, 2025; Big Pond Festival, 2025; Le Mini Grand Yes And, 2026). She was a stage manager for Moment Theatre Collective’s inaugural One Acts Now festival (April 2026). She tried to walk away from the stage via a long (and at times painful) academic detour, but she is excited to be back in the spotlight!
Carmen Wile is a Montreal-based actor. They are a graduate of the Professional Theatre Program (DOME) at Dawson College, whose passion for film, writing, and theatre inspires them every day. During their time at Dawson, they’ve acted in many productions, including Eurydice (Ruhl), Mucedorus, Idomeneus (Schimmelpfennig), The Speculator (Greig), and Machinal (Treadwell). Upon completing their degree, they starred in the premiere of An Uncomfortable Dinner Party at the Montreal St-Ambroise Fringe Festival in 2025.
Robin is a curious and silly person who has been exploring theatre through small creative endeavors over the past couple of years. In 2024, he took improv classes and got to perform at Théâtre Sainte-Catherine’s Sunday Night Improv show. He also volunteered for the Montreal Fringe Festival as a venue manager and was exposed to a wide variety of shows and performers. The creative energy and behind the scenes perspective helped him grasp the basics of a theatre festival, as well as expand his understanding of what theatre and performance could look like. More recently, he took acting classes at NTS and volunteered as a Stage Manager for Moment Theatre Collective’s inaugural short play festival One Acts Now.
Time Travel Not Guaranteed will be Robin’s first appearance on stage. He is excited to bring his energy and plethora of facial expressions to the Fringe festival and delight audiences.
A bilingual actor from Montreal, Alex always had a profound interest in storytelling. His curiosity about the process of movie making lead him watching a lot of bonus features on most of the movies he would purchase. He found out early on about acting and instantly knew that’s what he wanted to do. He did some background work as a teenager and for a while, decided to learn more about the work that goes on behind the camera. Then, he decided to fully commit to what he really wants to do. Over the years, he trained in both Montreal (Straeon Acting Studios, House Of Actors, Gannon Performance Studio and ISA) and is a graduate of Vancouver Acting School. Now an Actra member, with a decade of experience and training, Alex has been in independent and short films, commercials and plays.

Carolina Muñoz Jasa is a Montreal-based performer, director, and producer who got into theatre through an early and very real obsession with Glee. She started out performing professionally, including work with the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, before moving into directing and producing sketch and comedy shows that match her very specific comedic taste, somewhere between structured chaos and things that probably shouldn’t be funny but are.
She is also a recent graduate of McGill Law, which mostly means she is very good at overanalyzing scripts and arguing about what is or isn’t funny. Most recently, she directed a sold-out run of two one-act plays with Moment Theatre Collective. She has also worked with both Ottawa Fringe and Montreal Fringe in the past and is happy to be back.
Her work draws on physical comedy, clown, mask theatre, and commedia dell’arte, and she loves building shows that are playful, a little weird, and grounded in something real underneath it all. She is looking forward to collaborating on this piece and working with the cast to find the rhythm, the heart, and the fun in a cheesy comedy.
