With our 14th Annual Improv Retreat fast approaching we checked in with our Maydays coming to play this year. So let’s hear from the taciturn, one and only, Mr John Cremer!

 

What are you most looking forward to at MIR22?

Full immersion into improv joy

 

What advice would you give to complete newbies to our retreats?

Say hello to the first Mayday you see and have a chat. Enjoy the ride!

Give one stand-out experience from previous years

Seeing Lloydie guide a participant to absolutely nailing “game of the scene” and not cutting the scene for 10 painfully funny minutes

How would you sum up The Maydays retreat experience in 3 words?

Intense. Supportive. Transformational
