Chelsea Adland (née Gilman) is an improv performer.

History

Chelsea Gilman Adland started improvising when she auditioned successfully for We Could Be Heroes in May of 2000.

A post from her about the first improv show she ever saw:

I saw some improv shows as a kid and performed Whose Line Is It, Anyway? games in high school...

The first improv show I saw in Austin was in the Texas Union Building my freshman year at UT, so 1999-2000. It was Well Hung Jury, and I didn't know any of them, but recognized Ben Sterling from the theatre department. I also saw Fatbuckle's first show that year, and remember Lee Eddy trying to get someone to guess Yoko Ono.

It looked like a lot of fun, so that spring when I saw an ad in The Chronicle, I auditioned for We Could Be Heroes.
