time with Boom Chicago, Dan co-wrote and performed in one of the
troupe's biggest hit shows to date: "Me, MySpace and iPod". This
send-up of the digital age was hailed by many critics as "the best
Boom Chicago show ever" in addition to becoming the longest-running
show in the theater's 15-year history. Between major productions,
Oster found himself trying a bit of everything by way of his fearless
stage persona, from jokingly discussing penile inadequacy to
performing freestyle raps as obscure pop culture icons like Paul
Reiser and Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe. Outside the Boom theater,
one of Dan's most noteworthy pre-MADtv gigs came in the form of a
30-minute mockumentary-style television program entitled "The Digital
Difference".Oster joined the cast of MADtv in 2007, as a featured
performer, for the thirteenth season. He made his debut on the show on
November 24, 2007. Oster is also the fifth MADtv cast member to have
been a member of Boom Chicago, joining former cast members Ike
Barinholtz, Josh Meyers, Nicole Parker, and Jordan Peele.
