About this episode

Margot Escott discusses her advocacy for play and her work as a psychotherapist.

Margot Escott, LCSW, has been an advocate for play since 1970. She has worked as a psychotherapist for over 35 years and currently works with people with Parkinson's Disease. Her spaces for play have had adults connect to one another and even themselves. I am a huge fan of her podcast ( Improv Interviews ), where she has interviewed SO MANY people. It may be the most exhaustive cannon of improv practitioners out there. Hope you enjoy this interview.
