PODCAST: Episode 10 - Joe Bill (Founder Annoyance Theatre) - Get Out of Your Head

In this episide I chat to Joe Bill is a legendary improviser who has been performing for almost half a century. He trained with Del Close, was a founding member of the Annoyance theatre in Chicago, and was director of corporate training at iO for 15 years.

He now travels the world, performing and teaching improv alongside some of the biggest names around. I caught up with him at the GBG Improv Festival in Gothenberg, where I had just seen him and Patti Styles perform an incredible improvised play.

We chatted about his experiences working with Del Close, his love of applying neuroscience to improv, and how improv helped him deal with his cancer diagnosis.

Ever since his very first class at The Free Association in London, he has been in love with the art form and truly believes in its power for good. He’s produced, and performed in, countless shows in all manner of venues from from dingy local pubs, to festivals like VAULT and Edinburgh Fringe.
