Ken and Russell wanted to f***ing talk to long time friend and collaborator Nicole Zylstra about her work as an improviser, actor, director and playwright. Nicole draws on her work as a leading light in the Calgary Improv Scene to discuss how this artistic approach can be used in the business world.
Listen to Episode 15, for what was a f***ing great interview with improviser, actor, director and playwright Nicole Zylstra, our long time friend and collaborator who has worked with us in our Forum Theatre for Business Programs since the beginning.
Nicole has also appeared on television and film, but is best known for her improv work with all three of Calgary's improv groups including the Kinkonauts.
