  • John Hilsen Part 2

    Part two of my interview with the multitalented John Hilsen who is currently music director for Hyprov. I've been wanting to talk to a improv music director for a while and I wasn't disappointed. If you want a music director for an improv show you should find yourself a John Hilsen. Enjoy this peak behind the curtain of what it takes to score improvisational theatre as well as accompany improvised songs.

  • Body of Work Phoneprov with Charles Frierman

    I decided to start season 2 off with some of the work that Charles and I have been doing over on Patreon as Bonus Content. I'm doing this both to show non-patreon listeners some of what's going on over there but also because I have so much fun with Charles and I want more people to appreciate his genius.
