Improv Comedy: Ify Nwadiwe Appreciates Serendipity Too
Ify’s path to a comedy career started in the least likely of places, the office that issues death certificates. How did he get from Point Z to Point A? Listen and find out!
Before doing comedy, Ify was issuing death certificates. Not in the way an 80’s action hero would “issue death certificates”. He was literally working in a government office issuing birth, marriage and death certificates. It was a death in his own family that caused him to rethink his life’s trajectory thus beginning his career in comedy, writing and podcasting. Not only does Ify share this story on our first episode in the improv series but we turn to the Fishbowl and it pays terrific dividends. Indeed, we share a fabulous first - Movie Mad Libs! Enjoy!
