PVImprov's video: Improv Deep Dive - Hidden Conditions in Improv w Jess Napthine-Hodgkinson 2023

In this video, the first of a new segment in improv tips, Jess Napthine-Hodgkinson and I do a deep dive into the idea of players with hidden conditions in improv. Jess lays out what some of those conditions might be, how they might present themselves and we talk about how improv communities can become more welcoming and inclusive of those players. It is a fantastic chat - I learned a lot and I think you will too. 0:00 Intro 0:25 Shout out to Jess' original Improv Tip https://youtu.be/bo8YUCTwNYU 0:46 Beginning of Interview/Chat 1:22 What is Brain Fog Improv? 3:52 What can we do to make players with hidden conditions more welcome? 7:30 Shout out to Velvet's Tip https://youtu.be/4F-AkR9Tsqk 7:48 What are "hidden conditions"? 10:48 What can we be thinking about when thinking about increasing access for these players? 15:54 What other kinds of accommodations should I be thinking of? 19:26 Acknowledging that you don't know everything... Jess Napthine-Hodgkinson is an experienced improviser, facilitator and teaching and learning professional. Being an improviser with multiple sclerosis (MS) led Jess to set up Brain Fog Improv – an online space for improvisers with unseen conditions to share, learn and connect.
