6,000 Shows Later: Troy Grant on Improv, Confidence, and Showing Up | The Susana Gibb Show
Episode 73
Wednesday, 25 February, 2026
What does it take to walk on stage 6,000 times, and still feel nervous? In this episode of The Susana Gibb Show, Susana Gibb sits down with her longtime friend Troy Grant, founding member of the legendary Four Day Weekend, for a fun, heartfelt, and surprisingly profound conversation about confidence, presence, and performance. Troy shares what nearly three decades in improv, and more than 6,000 live shows, have taught him about fear, preparation, and trusting yourself in the moment. From his quirky pre-show rituals (including solo dinners at Luby’s and secretly watching audiences fill the theater) to unforgettable audition disasters and backstage nerves, Troy reveals the very human side of performing at the highest level. Together, Susana and Troy break down the core principles of improv, like “yes, and,” deep listening, and embracing uncertainty, and explore how those same principles can transform not just performance, but leadership, relationships, and business. Troy also explains how Four Day Weekend brings improv into the corporate world, helping teams build trust, communicate better, and unlock creativity.
