Together for over 19 years, John and Olga started off as an acting team but soon began to write their own scripts for lack of finding two-person plays they could tour across North America.
Subsequently, they wrote and toured four full-length critically acclaimed plays to packed houses across Canada and the United States; the last of which, Bad Boy, the duo was invited to perform Off-Off-Broadway at New York’s Creative Place Theatre in the heart of Times Square.
Looking to settle down to have children, the couple tried their hand at acting in film and television. Following a few impressive roles, they were soon approached to star in and rewrite the short film, Things Never Said in Playa Perdida.

Playa won the audience award at the New York Short Film Festival in 2002 and tied first place at the Festivalisimo festival in Montreal. Playa’s success inspired the couple to adapt Bad Boy for the screen and the couple plan to market the script in 2012. John and Olga have also written the pilot and synopsis for 13 episodes of an off-the-wall and hilarious half hour comedy series.
