Tiwana Floyd's video podcast series talking with creatives in quarantine New Episodes Every Tuesday https://www.tiwanafloyd.com https://www.instagram.com/quirkyful/ imdb.me/tiwana This Week's Guest Monika Smith https://www.missmonikasmith.com https://www.instagram.com/missmonikasmith/ https://www.instagram.com/felixsmithxolo/ Don't diminish Canadian born Monika Smith's attributes to beauty alone. While she once traveled the world as a fashion model, her sense of humor led her to become an Alumni of Second City Toronto at nineteen years old. She has been improvising ever since. Monika's adept knowledge of the craft granted opportunities to teach and write Long-Form curriculums in both America and China. When asked if comedy translates in foreign countries, she says "all of us laugh at a fart." But don't take that retort to mean her comedy is lowbrow. Quite the opposite. Monika is sharp, witty, and can bring a room to uproarious laughter with one succinct quip. In fact, she shares a moment where her improvisation of a one-line co-star audition led to a guest star recurring role opposite Sir Patrick Stewart on the TV series Blunt Talk. If you're an improv nerd you'll geek out on this conversation. If you know nothing about improvisation you won't feel left out. Living with an autoimmune disease all of her life, Monika has found a way to educate the masses with the upcoming podcast "SICK" to be released in February 2021. Imagine being told by a physician you're too pretty to be sick, leading to a road of constant misdiagnoses. It's time the world hears the plight of those living with an autoimmune disease. #MissMonikaSmith #CreativesinQuarantineSeries #TiwanaFloyd
