The Seven Eight Sevens were originally cast as a Gnap! house troupe by Jason Finkelman from a Merlinworks Improv Mixer. Jason wanted to direct a troupe that based its improv on the "Big and Colorful Characters of Austin." His vision was influenced by the television show Portlandia. He originally cast Ryan Hill, Scott Hearne, Emma Holder, Andrew Buck, Mia Isemann, Theresa York, and Ashlee Medlin. At the conclusion of the initially schedule Gnap! run at The Salvage Vanguard Theater most of the cast moved on to other projects, leaving only Scott Hearne and Ryan Hill. The pair enjoyed the concept of the troupe so much that they recast it, primarily with improvisers Ryan had worked with in After School Improv 2012. The new cast members were Mitchell Dean, Cat Drago, Brandon Martin, and Sarah Swofford. At the same time the troupe also started working with Clifton Highfield as a new coach.
