This week’s drop-in: Just the Two of Us Brought to you by Ben. Two person scenes are often the core of any improv show. They’re where we can really relish our stage time, work closely with our scene partner, and are incredibly fun. This week we are going back to basics

This week’s drop-in: Parental Guidance Brought to you by Parky. A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to be in a one hour MissImp show hosted by our friends at Knaresborough’s Frazer Theatre. The show was part of the town’s FEVA festival, and we were scheduled to be
