England
Thanks to the Improv Boost for the opportunity to teach two intensive weekends in England with Michelle Gilliam. Somewhere between omicron and BA2, we were able to make this happen. It was wonderful to head overseas again.
It was lovely to see familiar faces from my last England visit and to meet folks in person that I’d only known through zoom improv! I wish I could have stretched out time and hit the magic life pause button so that I could hold onto these dear people for a bit longer.
One thing I really noticed this time around is how changed we all were. From these last two years. Even amidst the joy, there was a heaviness that I could feel immediately.
We are not the same people we were before March 2020. And many were coming to this again for the first time in years. There was a rawness to some. And so much that was brought to this place we were all in together. It felt important to be extra present to hold space with everyone.
I’m incredibly thankful for the experience of to be in classrooms and to share stages with the wonderful humans that were a part of this. It was really special.
