This episode I chat to Alex Holland — head teacher at The Free Association in London. Alex has been improvising for over a decade and was one of their first teachers. As head teacher, he is now in charge of the FA’s curriculum, as well as casting their Harold teams, and performing in countless headline shows, such as Groundhog, 666 Hell Lane, and The Cartel.
In this episode we cover the best way to approach learning improv, what is “game”, what makes a good teacher, and how many furrows Alex would plough if he had a farm.
