Greg Shapiro ‘How to Be Dutch’ at NBTC Netherlands Bd of Tourism & Conventions

I was asked to give a reading from my book The American Netherlander: 25 Years of Expat Tales. It's a module I like to call 'Culture Shock Therapy.' And we had a 'bubble' set - everyone on set had to have a negative Covid test. And between the speakers and the crew, there were just enough live bodies to be able to play to audible laughs.  

Greg Shapiro Masterclass: CULTURE SHOCK THERAPY

There are plenty examples of Culture Shock in the Netherlands. Like having a Dutchman introduce himself and say "Hello, my name is Freek. I am Freek, and this is my colleague Tjerk."

Greg Shapiro Presents THE ZOOM IMPROV WORKSHOP

After the success of my HOW NOT TO ZOOM 'video conference mini-show,' a client asked: “Could you lead one of your classic improv workshops via Zoom as well?” And I said YES.

1 Year of ‘HOW NOT TO ZOOM: a Videoconference Mini-Show

It was April, 2020 when I got a phone call: “Could you do 10 minutes of comedy about video conferencing for our weekly video conference?” I said YES. And it was such a hit, I developed a new videoconference mini-show called HOW NOT TO ZOOM, aka “Sharing WORST Practice.” Pretty soon, I was asked to do longer sets of 30-45 minutes - including a tailored powerpoint show. No problem.
