September and October have been pretty epic. I've recently come back from my fourth tour support with the Charles Ross and his 'One Man Star Wars' Show. Three weeks on the road, playing sixteen venues across the UK, it's been as tiring as it has rewarding.

One of the biggest highlights was playing Salford Lowry Theatre to a full capacity crowd. Nice.

The Bring a Brick podcast interviews people from all over the world who use improvisation and applied improvisation in their work. It's a broad and constantly developing field where the host takes the role of curious student, learning how people teach and benefit from the unique values of applying improv.

A word from the host.

Hi, I'm John Cooper; stand up comic, improviser and designer. I use improv and play to teach and discover in pretty much everything I do. I've taught workshops for the BBC New Comedy Awards and contributed to a TV show called 'The Speaker'. I've been on the set of the real TARDIS and was briefly the 'face' of North West and Lancashire Life magazine, despite being from the North East. I started the Bring a Brick podcast in September 2016 out of a curiosity to discover how trainers and professionals use the 'how' of improvisation.
