We all have to deal with complex emotions regarding loss and tough situations at some point in our lives.  In this episode, we talk with Justin Kavanagh about how we can use improv off-stage to process those feelings and work through the grief and trauma life throws at us.

Today's game explores how we listen to and respond to emotions on stage.

In our history segment, we will chat about Del Close, and how he views the process of emotional connection with and through the audience.

Today's concept is playing to the top of your intelligence - learning how to play low-status characters intelligently and with humanity.

This episode is dedicated to Brad Vance - our friend and a fellow player who left life's stage all too early. We miss you!
