Prepare for an exciting journey into the world of improvisation with our special guest, David Hamilton, improv teacher and founder of Anubis Improv. You're about to find out how his passion for improv turned his life around and how this art form can transform yours too. From his early fascination with acting, David has grown into a successful improv coach, helping individuals discover their own talents and thrive, even in challenging times like the pandemic. 

In this enlightening conversation, we delve into the magic and thrill of improv performance, while David shares the difference between invention and discovery in improv performances. Get ready to learn how scenes play out differently depending on whether we invent them or discover them. We explore the parallels between improv and other performing arts, and how they can each help us uncover our unique talents. We'll also touch upon why stand-up comedy doesn't quite resonate with us.

Finally, we'll journey with David as he recounts his move to Glasgow, his encounter with the improv community there, and his noteworthy performance at the Edinburgh Improv Festival. And we can't forget to mention his introduction to the Herald style of improv, which brought with it a whole new set of challenges. See how the power of improv transformed David's life, and how it could do the same for you. Join us on this wonderful journey of discovery and transformation.
