PODCAST: Episode 9 - Patti Stiles (Rapid Fire Theatre, Theatre Sports) - Be a Storyteller

In this episode I chat to Patti Stiles — legendary improviser, actor, director, and author who began her improv journey training with Keith Johnson in the 1980s. She has since gone on to perform, teach, and direct countless improvisational theatre companies all over the world.

I caught up with her at the GBG Improv Festival in Gothenberg, where I had just seen her and Joe Bill perform an incredible improvised play. We chatted about the her incredible four decades of experience, the way she approaches storytelling, how she judges a bad show, and how London has a wealth of improv history to build on.

Improv has been slowly taking over Aram’s life for over six years. 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.
