Today, my guest is Kareem Badr.
Kareem is one of the owners of The Hideout Theatre in Austin, TX , and with his improv team Parallelogramophonograph, he co-authored “Do It Now”, a book of essays on narrative improvisation. In 2020, his fiction podcast script "Curtains" won the Austin Film Festival script competition.
Great news! The Hideout Theatre has re-opened! PGraph's first show back at the theater is this Thursday, July 22nd!
