Diana Lynn Brown

Actor Improv Artist Director

NEWS

Hello Beautiful Humans,

It’s been awhile since I’ve shared updates here. In all truth, I’ve been very busy and grateful for the opportunities. As we’re beginning a new year there’s so much to catch you up on, and so many people to thank.

I must start with thanking my performing partner in Bingewatch, Dan Wilson. We became international improv artists this year with appearances at the Vancouver Improv Fest and at Improv Fest Ireland! I was invited to lead workshops at both festivals and added a side trip up to Belfast to teach at the Belfast Improv Festival.

Up Next, I’ll be appearing in a very unique improv show called The Oracle (click for Tickets)

If you like playing with a Magic 8 Ball, getting your fortune told, or wondering about the major questions of life and living, then you'll love The Oracle.  Click the link above or the image below for tickets.


In Summer of 2025 I’ll be one of the instructors at Rise Comedy’s Improv Intensive. And I’m beyond honored to be among these talented improv teaching artists. You can learn more here.


I’ll be appearing at Impro Amsterdam International Spontaneous Theatre Festival in The Witches Present Slumber Party. Information here


In February, I’ll be appearing in Susan Jackson’s Play

Instructor Spotlight: Diana Brown

In my humble opinion, Diana is one of the best character actors I’ve seen.  Her depth and breadth of her characters is so impressive.  From high status brainy girl scouts to wise elders from the South to Victorian England society women.  Diana truly transforms herself in an instant!  Her brain works at lightning fast speed!  My jaw literally drops as I witness her pull together topical news, multiple call-backs, and historical and literature references.  This woman was born for the improv stage.  MORE...

Diana is a true gift to her students.  Here are testimonials on her teaching:

"Diana was an amazing Level 1 teacher!  I particularly loved her ability to frame what each exercise was for and help us figure out what we should learn from it.  I've taken away so much to apply both to future improv scenes as well as to life interactions in general.”
- Xander D.

“Diana’s everything you could ask for: empathetic, funny, full of information, easy to understand, and invested in her students."
- Christine D.

“Diana's L1 class transformed us in 6 weeks, both as individuals - with greater confidence and skills that we could carry into our respective workplaces and daily lives - and as a group - from a collection of strangers to friends now coordinating when to sign up for L2 (immediately after the holidays).”
- David C.

Diana is known to ask her students after an improv scene: “What did you LOVE about that scene?”  So in true Diana Brown style, I invite you to let us know:
