This review is from: Group Improvisation: The Manual of Ensemble Improv Games (Paperback)
I really wanted it to be 0 stars. but that is not an option.
I thought this book was really bad. I wanted to learn more about improv, and this didn't tell me anything new, and it's pretty basic stuff. There are better books out there....I also do not reccomend Truth in Comedy by C Halpern.
Improv is more about feeling and being in the moment, and not going by the "book."
Both of these books must have been written by people who did a lot of watching, and not a lot of doing.
