Posted: 6/14/07 at 3:55pmI have an intense love for anything improvisational. My acting teacher senior year studied with Viola Spolin, so all we did was read Improvisation for the Theatre and play games. It was a blast.

Posted: 6/14/07 at 4:20pmWe do this game in my class. Where 5 people are skipping around the stage you tell them to stop and they become art. And then someone has to sale the art it can be REALLY funny. I'm great at improv. My friends call me robin williams jr. because I can pop into any character at any time.

Posted: 6/15/07 at 9:59amI took an improv class a few years ago, and got nothing out of it. I'm not the best at improv, but sometimes I can think of something very good.

Posted: 6/17/07 at 10:08pmI actually hate improv. I know its a great skill to have, and I'm actually pretty good at it, but I just don't like it one bit.

Count me as one of those who loves to improve, but is lesst than stellar.
I guess I have a moment or two, but besides that I just do it for the sheer fun of it.

Posted: 6/18/07 at 12:52amin my acting class, we did a short scene in which a wife tells her husband that she is cheating on him with his best friend (i was the husband). the scene was never stopped and it eventually went on and on into a hugely intricate plotline involving the mafia. 'twas awesome. my husband character had a nervous breakdown, propositioned my wife and best friend into a threesome, joined said mafia, became a cat burglar, and was eventually murdered by a hitman when i tried to back out of the mob. improv rules!
