Thanks Mike! Yes am safe and sound in my SF room..raring to get my biz idea off the ground. It was wonderful to share those AIN moments with you, from the beer & tater tot chats in the Power Station to that inspiring lightbulb moment you had in the CEO session. Keep me posted on using the notion of grace and service to inject inprov into your work!
Thanks Mike! See you in Portland. Will call you on your cell if I'm looking to share a taxi (versus slumped in an earlier one). Can't wait to see you and catch up!
Best wishes,
Belina

Hi Mike,
Thank you for your offer. Looks like you and Jani (cool guy - was at Loose Moose with him) should share a lift. Will see how I'm feeling that night. Would you please email me your cell number for 'just in case'?
Mike: I'll be at the Portland airport 23:14 (11:14PM) from JFK (DL 0745) according to the schedule. We could share a taxi, meet you by the info booth or something?
Greetings Mike,
I was in the middle of a reply to you when I became distracted by the other blog post you had written. I hope you can come to IMPROVSTOCK with Keith Johnstone. Of course it's always a tricky area to tell someone what will happen to them when they take a course or workshop, but I can tell you MY experience of working with Keith....it was an utterly transforming experience. It's difficult to describe here, the difference between reading the words in a book and actually having the opportunity to have a discussion with Keith about these ideas, and to be in workshop where you can actually SEE and experience what he is talking about.
I don't have time right now to go into all of this...I am on a break from working on La Boheme, but I hope we'll have a chance to talk soon, or better yet, you should plan to come to chattanooga and study with Keith! We do have a few spots left...better hurry!
We have some folks from Los Angeles, Nashville, Atlanta, St. Louis MO, Woodstock GA, Huntington WV, and of course Chattanooga currently registered....sure hope you can join us. (We have a fairly good cross section of actors, directors, teachers, authors coming!)
Mike, I was thinking about you and Robin and the improv and spirituality session you did at the conference. How much I liked it and think it would be cool to go around the country teaching workshops like that at places of faith or spirituality. Maybe it would be possible to do it, even if just for food and board. A travelling show. If I understand how to network with Faith based communities, I might just talk to you guys about trying it!
Great to connect with you too! Hey, you're east coast-y and I'm looking for projects back in the US. If an opportunity pops up for us to collaborate - would you be up for that?
Fantastic! Thanks for asking! We had about 125 in attendance,and made big bucks for the Ballet space fundraiser! How are things your way? Any more thoughts to our topics? I have been super busy, so I haven't gotten to the site. Any chance you will be in Cincy soon? Looks like we are going to have another show next month.
Ditto! I talked to my pastor/improv troupe member/friend and maybe I can bring him along when we meet! Just let me know when you might have a date in mind. :)

Seeing the invisible is indeed a gift and I'm glad I could show you a glimpse.
Many thanks.
Glad to be in the 'network'. Hope we can connect again.
