Who is Sharanya Mathanarajan?

Sharanya Mathanarajan is an improviser with Idiot Box, an ensemble of television devotees who turn the shows of their audience's childhood into made-up comedy. At the 2026 ITS Comedy Festival the group brought its small-screen nostalgia to Improv Theatre Sydney, with a cast that took in Mo, Tanya O'Kane, Kirit Chaudhary, Sam King, Bec Foley and Andy Maher among others. The same players appeared on the Sydney Fringe programme in Television: Live, where scenes grew out of favourites such as Round the Twist, Saddle Club and Cheez TV, as well as the cartoon Hey Arnold.
