Casting Director Lisa Beach says, "I will be in Australia attending the final presentation at Improvcamp as the event's VIP. I am travelling the whole fourteen hours there and the twelve hours back, because I think that the program is amazing and a great way to discover talent! I wish that we had it in the US!"

"To think that Canadian teenagers have had it for 32 years -- now it's bypassing the US, and going all the way to Australia! But, I guess lucky for you guys, right?"
