Summary Patti Stiles is an actor, improviser, director, instructor, playwright, and co-Artistic Director of Impro Melbourne, Australia. She trained under Keith Johnstone as a Loose Moose Theatre Company member and is now one of the most sought after experts on Johnstone's impro system of training (as Deborah Frances-White points out in her interview!). In this episode, Patti shares how Keith works as a teacher, director, and playwright. She also articulates what separates Johnstone-trained improvisers from others and, most importantly, how Keith masterfully and gently applies systematic desensitization-type tools to help student improvisers overcome their fears on stage.
