What is Improv?

Santa Clarita Improv - Comedy Improv FAQ or Frequently Asked...
You improvise everyday in your life. You make up your dialogue with people at home, work, etc. So do we. We just get paid for it. So 'comedy improv' is when a cast or team of actors/comedians work together to create spontaneous scenes, songs, monologues, interviews, news reports, or anything really. The best part is that its so fun to watch when it's done well.

Can You Practice Improv?

Santa Clarita Improv - Comedy Improv FAQ or Frequently Asked...
Few people are 'naturals' at improv. It can be a complicated business -telling a story, acting out a scene, making up dialogue, making your scene partner look good, being funny- all at the same time. We practice much like you would for a sporting event. We work drills to practice basic improv skills like listening to each other, moving scenes forward, justifying, labeling things, etc.

About the Water Coolers
No -- we're not an improv act. The style of our performances is relaxed and off-the-cuff, but all the material is written, tested with audiences, and rehearsed to ensure a predictably super audience reaction. Of course, sometimes our performers have the chance to play with audience reactions and they'll definitely sieze the opportunity to share a spontaneous moment with the crowd.

What precisely IS improv?

no parking players: faq
Improv is improvisational theatre—a theater art in which there is theater, but without all of the complications of blocking, scripts, and knowing whose turn it is to talk. There are many flavors of improv, but most are striving for more or less the same goal, namely to create something off the top of your heads that seems as though it was rehearsed. Improv can be an idea generator, a warm-up or characterization exercise, or as at usually is in our case, entertainment and fun.

How are fight scenes choreographed?

Peter Hassall Stunt Site
With as much rehearsal time as possible! Soft props made of foam or plastic are used instead of real weapons. Plates, bottles, and furniture are made of lightweight breakaway materials. Even with these safety precautions and body padding, it needs the use of skilled techniques to kick and punch without hurting each other.

The Feline PKD FAQ -- Answers to Frequently Asked Questions ...
Why? Because PKD is a genetic disease, not a communicable disease. So any cattery lucky enough to have only PKD negative foundation stock AND never bring in a PKD positive cannot produce PKD positive cats, and thus will be a PKD free cattery.

What do I wear to dances?

Tango St. Louis
Most Milonga venues don't have a strict dress code, therefore this is a matter of personal taste and judgment. A pair of nice slacks and shirt are always acceptable for both men and women. Dances can be a fun opportunity to dress up, though. Many women enjoy wearing flowing material because its movement accentuates their dancing. If you're in the mood to go all out, fee free to throw on a pair of fishnets and a red dress! For practicas and class, there's no need to dress up.
