Do you love improv but not know where to start? Maybe you're an improv veteran who can't help but feel they've lost their spark? Does the improv journey, suddenly or forever, seem out of reach?
In a book that appeals to the new and experienced alike, Paul Drotos lays out the basic starting points of improv, how to navigate an improv fascination from hobby to career, and how your own philosophy will shape your journey. Along the way you'll experience firsthand stories and hard-hitting lessons, as well as guiding questions and suggestions to help you start your own improv journey, whether it be personal or professional.
Through stories, lists, quotes, and tangents, Your Improv Journey takes you on an adventure from your first step into the world of improvisation to your hundredth show. This book walks a hungry performer through how they can arrange their first show, how to deal with the best and worst attitudes in improv, what to do if they're not funny, and MORE!
