What happens in someone's brain when they're freestyling or doing improv comedy? Anthony Veneziale - a Philadelphia native who started Freestyle Love Supreme with Lin-Manuel Miranda - has actually been studying that, and teaching others how to harness the skills of freestyle for their everyday lives through FLS Academy. He breaks down the neuroscience for us, along with some history of hip-hop, freestyle, and improv, and he gives us a demo. Plus, he tells us how he met Lin-Manuel Miranda, how Freestyle Love Supreme began, and what you can expect to see on stage when the show comes to the Miller Theater from June 7-12.
