Technical Difficulties – improv special

On Friday 8th April 2011, my planned interview with Christine Miserandino was postponed due to events beyond the control of both of us. Having prepared to discuss The Spoon Theory, the resulting improvised programme was thus themed.

Thank you to Christine for being such an inspiration, even in her absence. Thank you to Bob and Roberta Smith + George Lionel Barker for their enthusiasm to hear this.
