Improvisational theatre is a form of theatre in which the actors use improvisational acting techniques to perform spontaneously. Actors typically use audience suggestions to guide the performance as they create dialogue, setting, and plot extemporaneously. Many improvisational actors also work as scripted actors, and "improv" techniques are often taught in standard acting classes. The basic skills of listening, clarity, confidence, and performing instinctively and spontaneously are considered important skills for actors to develop.
The best way to improve improvisational skills is by practicing, playing improv games, and learning through trial and error. In this free video series, an improv teacher will show you a number of games to play to practice your improv skills, from the alphabet and relay games to the secret word and freeze tag games. You'll also learn how to do a backwards improv scene, how to use props in improv, and how to do a tag team monologue. Improve your improv skills instantly with improv games!
