		<title>Actor + Audience + Story = Theater</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love to work with the actor, helping them get to that place that transforms them, even on the smallest scale.  When the light bulbs come on I get rewarded.  When someone says “I never thought I could do this” and then they do, that is what drives me.  I love to connect as an actor, to challenge myself to see stories and characters from a different perspective. ]]></description>

		<title>5 reasons to take an improv class</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a big one and comes with some debate.  Are there guidelines to increase the quality of improvisation?  Yes, but since you start with usually nothing more than a suggestion of some sort, you are limited only by your imagination.  You can’t break improv.  What a relief!]]></description>

In the past year, I attended two different conferences on two different subjects in which the presenter recommended the book Mindset by Carol Dweck.

		<title>Using A Little Joy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Humor can be sarcastic, a little angry, smug, etc. Sometimes that is fun to both play and watch. However, I think &#8220;using a little joy&#8221; can also be rewarding and fun to watch. I first heard &#8220;use a little joy&#8221; during a Phoenix Improv Festival workshop in 2008 with T.J. Jagodowski who is a well [...]]]></description>
