63. Zenprov: Trumprov
With the election of Donald Trump creating a wave of strong reactions around the world politics is currently a very important and relevant subject to include in your shows. It is also a minefield that can leave people offended and angry and leave any troupe ultimately very lonely on show nights. This episode deals with using the Buddha's tests for Right Speech to ensure you are coming from a pure and loving place so that you can effectively communicate with your audience. It can also be used in your daily life in dealing with the current political situations around the world.

62. Zenprov : Surrender
Our first post heart transplant episode talks about our experiences in the hospital and beyond with the greatest lesson we both learned from this experience. This is all about Surrender. We have talked about letting go and trusting in the past. This is light years beyond that. Surrender is an order of magnitude beyond anything we have talked about before. Enjoy!

61. Zenprov : Buddai
In September we received a request from a listener to do a short Podcast on the subject of Buddai which everyone thinks is the Buddha. You've seen the little smiling fat guy in Chinese restaurants? That's Buddai. In this short Podcast we will tell you all about Buddai and why he is so often confused with the Buddha.

Kundenrezensionen
The most inspiring podcast on Improv!
I am myself a professional improviser based in Munich, Germany. I deeply enjoy listening and learning from Nancy and Marshall's podcast Zenprov since their first episodes. The spiritual point of view on improv combined with lightness and ease turns improv really into a form of art. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience.
Inspiring, entertaining and full of practical advice
If you are in improvisational theatre, this one is a mandatory subscription. Nancy and Marshall not only pass on fundamental improv skills in a very lively and pleasant way. This podcast is also full of practical advise for improv performers and students. Be it on or off stage. Thanks so much for your great work!
