Miki's Info
Miki Manting Is the Artistic Director for VIF. In the wildly uncertain days that began in March 2020 , she became an improv midwife assisting at the birth of virtual improvisation. Her vision was instrumental in staging what is probably the world’s largest virtual improv festival. IRL she is an active member of the Boston improv community. A Massachusetts ob-gyn , she began in 2001 working with medical schools to create simulations augmented with improvisation. One of her favorites was getting medical students and residents beyond their personal discomforts in taking sexual histories. She did this long before she even knew there was such a thing as Applied Improv!
