About the resources
I am dedicated to exploring how different neurotypes approach learning and performing improv and comedy! That means ALL brains. And the more we understand each other and include all brain wiring…
... THE BETTER OUR COMEDY GETS!
… YOU CAN TEACH OR COACH IT BETTER!
… YOUR WRITING IMPROVES!
These are all good things.
I’ve been told these topics are relevant to performing comedy and acting in general. Because you need to assume someone that diverges from the norm is in the room. Because statistically? We definitely are.
You should subscribe if you want to make your practice a bit more inclusive, including with yourself. If you want to empower your neurodivergent mind and self.
Resources have moved to ImprovUpdate.com
This podcast has been renamed, and the improv articles have been moved to my own domain. Unfortunately I needed to remove my content because of Substack’s partnership with (supporting) and direct egregious promotion of far-right extremist ideology, as I find that unacceptable. Especially as an autistic and ADHD human, as so many marginalized populations like ours are being harmed by what they promote.
My resources are now self-hosted on Canadian servers, and the podcast is hosted on non-American servers.
