DANIEL PELLIKAN

WRITER / DIRECTOR / PERFORMER

Daniel Pellikan is 50% satirist, 50% pizza enthusiast, and 100% Chicagoan.

Born and raised in Rogers Park, Daniel is a Chicago-based writer, director, and performer. He studied theatre for two years at Loyola University before completing his degree in Film, Video, New Media from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. You can explore samples of his completed projects, scripts, and corporate videography.

After performing professionally at The Second City for several years, Daniel earned his nickname “Pellikandy” for never working blue and being sweet as “kandy.”

Outside of the arts, Daniel has been an Events Operations Supervisor for The Cubs (yes, during the World Series which they obviously won due to his involvement). He also is an exercise enthusiast, proudly flexing his title at the gym as “That Sweaty Guy.” When not doing all that stuff, he enjoys playing with his deaf, albino, Dalmatian, Scout.
