Anointed Greens sketch team is taking a moment to honor Black women in pop culture who deserve their flowers some real some fictional all equally important. A mix of sketches will honor R&B legends like Mariah Carey female friendships and unsung heroes like Boo Boo The Fool while other ones will call out Drake's new rap lyrics and dads who owe over $2500 in child support and therefore can't get a passport. It's silly it's biting and every sketch leaves you with a new fact you didn't know about!
Anointed Greens is an all-black women's sketch team based in Los Angeles featuring writers and performers Paige Elson Dyani Rejae and April Rock. The sketch team was formed in 2022 when someone asked “Where are the black women sketch teams at" however the three have been working together since 2013 in acting classes and doing comedy at UCB. The team has been featured at theaters all over Los Angeles and most recently at SF Sketchfest. Collectively their on-screen and writing credits include "Bel-Air" "Frasier" (reboot) "Grand Crew" "Twenties" Nickelodeon "Just Fab" and Apple as well as UCB's Harold Night Maude Night Lloyd Night being Kissed by Seal touched by Beyonce and DM'd by Mariah Carey. So as you can see they're Black Royalty.
