    We've got a real treat for you this week as Diz sits down to talk with Sarah Davies of the Improv Gym!  Sarah is a playwright, theater teacher, actor and improvisor from Kent in the UK.

    Episode 10 - Kim Tan of The Improv Company in Singapore (aka: The Horse on the other Side of the Door)

    This week, Diz talks with Kim Tan, Co-Founder of The Improv Company in Singapore! The conversation, which technically happened on two different days at the same time (thanks to the 12-hour time difference), covers a lot of territory, including: The Importance of Physical and emotional check-ins. Staying in the moment. How Curiosity and Research can improve your performance. They also talk about the process of building an Improv Scene from the ground up, and how, when you go through that door, you might just find a horse on the other side. So, kick back, relax, and join us 12 hours in the future for the next installment of Go Through The Door! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/go-through-the-door/support

    Episode 9 - Malachi Nimmons Jr. from NYC (aka - "Selling Everything For an Audition")

    This week, Diz speaks with Chattanooga's own Malachi Nimmons Jr., live from New York City! A graduate of Chattanooga State's Professional Actor Training Program, Malachi left our fair city a few years back and has had quite the awesome career. From performing with Chicago City Limits in NYC, a run on Tru TV, and being a ([very] small) part of the MCU, Malachi has done quite a lot in the last few years. But, it's not all showbiz talk. The discussion this week ranges over a wide range of Improv- and performance-related topics, including: Getting comfortable on stage Letting go of ideas (instead of imposing them on others) Following the character Selling EVERYTHING you own, just to get to an audition Why Hasidic Jews Love him So, grab your quarantine Manischewitz, slap in those AirPods you purchased as a reward for staying inside for 8 weeks, kick back and relax as we Go Through The Door!  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/go-through-the-door/support

    Episode 8 - Chad Ward of Holodeck (aka: Hangin' With Chad)

    Life is a funny old thing. In this episode, Diz catches up with a friend from High School, Chad Ward! Though they went their separate ways when they headed off to college, somehow, they both found their way into the loving arms of Improv! A writer by trade (check out his work for the "Savage Worlds" RPG system or his book, "An Edge in the Kitchen: The Ultimate Guide to Kitchen Knives"), Chad spends much of his free time on stage with his troupe "Holodeck" in Apex, North Carolina. In addition to catching up, Diz and Chad discuss Playing Smart, the difficulty of letting go of your own (obviously genius) ideas, and how NPR can get you pumped before a show. So, plug in those head phones, and Go Through The Door with us again!
