A Festival of Ideas

Annual Improv Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana

Celebrating Theater, Visual Arts, and More

Improv Conference NOLA: A Festival of Ideas was held in 2018 and 2019. It was meant to be an annual event. We hope to make it happen again in 2024 after I see my new book to press: Winging It: How Improvisation Makes (and Breaks) Popular Culture

Thanks for stopping by. There is a lot of content to be found through the navigation above. Don’t miss Michael Tisserand’s interview of the great Jules Feiffer, cartoonist (and improviser) extraordinaire. On the same landing page, you’ll find a link to my conversation with Michael Pollan and Mark Plotkin about the connections between improvisation and psychedelics.
