A splendid chat with Vancouver-based improviser Amy Shostak. Amy is also a very inventive producer and one of the city's most in-demand educators.
Amy started improvising with Edmonton’s Rapid Fire Theatre in 2002 where she served as the company's Artistic Director for six years. In Vancouver, she teaches improv with Blind Tiger Comedy and performs weekly with Little Mountain Improv. She is also a Festival Organizer of The Vancouver Improv Festival. She tours regularly with her improv duos: Rå Power with Joleen Ballendine, and Amy & Tom with Tom Hill. She is also part of a Canadian Comedy Award-nominated sketch duo Gossamer Obsessions.
In this episode, we'll talk about pre show rituals, raw turmeric, creating formats and genres, a recent disaster show and potentially exciting plans for the Vancouver Improv Festival.
