In this episode, we're joined by Minder Kaur Athwal. Minder has been improvising her way through life for decades but found improvised comedy six years ago as a way to help manage her anxiety and depression. She has trained as a facilitator with the Old Vic Theatre and is now an applied improv workshop leader. She regularly takes part in international panels, Q&As and conference talks and in 2019 led a session at the Global Improvisation Symposium.
Minder is one half of improv performing duo Honey Badger, a member of the all female theatre collective The Party Somewhere Else and a member of the Edinburgh International Improv Festival’s advisory board. She brings her knowledge and skills from her varied career to her improv work.
In this episode, we explore:
- improv
- 'winging it'
- networking
- thinking on your feet
- facing rejection
- going outside your comfort zone
and loads more.
