Recorded live at PAX AUS in Oct 2024, join us for "Yes And! Why every TTRPG player should take an improv class".

A panel of expert theatre and gaming nerds take you through the Golden Rules of Improv, share their own experiences, and answer audience questions. Kate talks phobias, Scott defends wokeness, and Stephen talks a lot about committing fantasy crimes.
