What is Improv?

​

Improv or impro, short for improvisation, is a form of live theater in which the plot, characters, and dialogue of a scene or story are created spontaneously in front of the audience. In other words, improv is acting without a script. It is about making everything up as you go along.

Very often, improvisers take suggestions from the audience to start a scene and to guide the whole performance. Audiences love the spontaneous, entertaining and unpredictable qualities of an improv performance.
