Rick Overton joins us for a captivating exploration of improv comedy, offering a fresh perspective on the spontaneity and creativity that fuel not just comedy, but all performing arts. Imagine a comedy world where a tech support call spirals into a masterclass of wit and timing—Rick shows us how embracing the unexpected can lead to comedic gold. With a nod to the past, he challenges the idea of originality by encouraging performers to balance influences with their own unique voices, proving that even the most spontaneous acts are rooted in a blend of preparation and improvisation.
