In this episode I chat to Graham Dickson — founder of The Free Association in London and original cast member of west-end hit improv show, Austentatious. Graham has been improvising for nearly 20 years and has far too many accolades to list here. Most recently he’s been performing with Cool Story Bro, Kiell Smith-Bynoe’s hit improv show that just did a sell-out run at Soho Theatre’s new 1000 seat venue.
In this episode we cover Graham’s long-standing love affair with improv, the ups and downs of running the FA, why mischief is so important to comedy, and why British improv should never rest on its laurels.
