Such a special episode of @NoSuggestionPod this week as we welcome a former colleague I really admire, actor, filmmaker, midwesterner, teacher, mentor, advocate, twin sister, and improv comedian, Abby Pierce (@plainoldabby).
There's so much to talk to Abby about, and co-host Aston Hollins (@astonhollins), guest co-host Alex Sanchez (@alboogieeee), and I really have a blast learning all about Abby's fascinating journey. We learn a little about her job working for the legendary non-profit Drama Club (@dramaclubnyc), what it's like to be a twin, how Proactiv stains towels, how the two excellent short films Abby's just made (@soboom_runitback) are doing the rounds on the film circuit, how those films were inspired by her work with Drama Club, and how Abby's training at the legendary Piven theater prepared her for the work she's doing now. And that actually only scratches the surface of what we find to talk about with Abby.
Amidst all of that, we also do a ton of hilarious improv with Abby, including a scene that details the origins of one of America's most iconic chefs. This episode really blows my mind. Abby is such a powerful, determined, visionary person. We really have fun, and are inspired getting to know her, and we know you will be too! Tune in!
