At the heart of the success of Lenny & Darla is the remarkable on-stage chemistry that exists between the people who bring them to life. Robert Fulton & Leslie Seiler are two very talented actors/comedians/improvisers that have been working together for many years. They’ve developed such a rapport that finishing each other sentences and setting up each other’s punch lines has become second nature to them. Indeed, reviewers have said of them “they’re so likeable it’s impossible not to laugh at their antics.”
LESLIE SEILER - "Darla"
Leslie hails from Halifax, Nova Scotia where she attended Dalhousie University for Theatre Performance. Presently she performs at The Second City in Toronto as an understudy for the Mainstage Company. She was a member of the Second City Touring Company and the cast of Tony n Tina’s Wedding for 3 years. Leslie is one-half of the sketch comedy duo CORY!, which was recently featured on The CBC's Sketch with Kevin McDonald. Her one-woman show Trapped in Taffeta was recently featured on Bravo television’s The Singular Series, featuring some of the best solo performers in Canada, and will be part of Twenty Valley Playhouse's summer season this year. She can also be seen in re-runs of YTV’s brilliant, but short-lived improvised series: Don’t Lick The Pig. Leslie enjoyed being a very young but jolly Mrs. Claus for Treehouse TV’s Santa Calls and had a guest-starring role on YTV’s Radio Free Roscoe. Being a Canadian actor she is no stranger to tv commercials, over the years she's suggested you buy Tim Horton's, M&M Meats and All-temperature Cheer.
