Today, I’m talking to an old friend who I’ve had the pleasure of learning with, shared the stage with and have watched develop into an amazing performer. My guest today is Diane Jorge.
Diane has been a comedic performer for over 13 years in South Florida, and has performed with various theaters including Just The Funny, Front Yard Theater Collective and ImprovU. Diane performs improv and stand-up comedy all across the United States, and she’s become one of the top female performers in South Florida.
Diane has developed 2 amazing one-person improvised shows. Her first show is Mercado de la Fortuna, inspired by the famous astrologer Walter Mercado, where she gives improvised fortunes to audience members. Her second show is called Solovela, a solo improvised telenovela that she creates based on audience suggestions, and plays all of the characters.
Diane was actually a student of mine at Just The Funny, and since the first time I met her I could tell that she had an energy level unlike anyone else I’ve ever met. Her energy, her passion, her drive is so infectious, she knows how to get herself out there and go big.
Here’s a fun little drinking game you can all play. Take a drink every time Diane hits the microphone! You’ll understand what I mean later!
