The only thing that beats watching good improv is performing it.
Improv is about freedom, trust and reacting in the moment. It’s not about planning or control. It calls for fearless vulnerability that can be harrowing and exhilarating. It’s the practicing of an old quirk of humanity- telling a good story.
This site offers you a rundown of what theatrical improv is and how it works. You’ll find guidance to practice it as well as some ideas for putting on an improv show of your own.
I hope this site offers you helpful orientation, but the only real way to learn improv is to step out into the free space of a stage and let the words and story find you.
Have fun!
