Amy cuts straight to the nitty gritty up top in this episode with a deep dive question about why improv fills Mike’s soul. Then, Amy and Mike talk about Osaka, the comedy capital of Japan, about connecting improv with Japanese audiences, and about balancing creativity with business. Mike was a great guy to talk to and he shares lots of stories about his experiences running Pirates of Tokyo Bay, Tokyo area’s only bilingual improv comedy community.
This is a great podcast to listen to if you ever wondered what if you just decided to go do improv in another country. This is that story. Enjoy the adventurous spirit of Mike Staffa!
