Improv Quotes

I used to teach improv courses in Amsterdam where we would do team-building exercises, and they can go south very quickly Picture Quote #1

I miss improv. I hate it in a way - watching it, doing it - but only because it’s so challenging and nerve wracking. Improv is the only belief system I’ve ever experienced that directly works on how to be. Just how to be Picture Quote #1

In an improv group and a successful work team, the members play off one another, each person’s contributions providing the spark for the next. Together, the improvisational team creates a novel emergent product, one that’s more responsive to the changing environment Picture Quote #1

Jon Hamm was the first I thought of for the other role in [Keeping Up with the Joneses], I recently worked with him on Clear History, an HBO improv movie that we had done together Picture Quote #1

I didn’t do improv in college, I never performed, I didn’t do theater either. I was in student government, I was a history major Picture Quote #1

I’m a comedy geek so anything comedy related, whether that’s standup shows, improv shows, I’m all over that. That’s my favorite way to be entertained always Picture Quote #1

Improv training allows you to get out of your head a little bit and take more risks, which is something I would like to continue to improve upon Picture Quote #1

I love improv. ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love,’ the script was really great, but the directors were open to letting you try different things. And that felt like a muscle I hadn’t exercised in a really long time Picture Quote #1

An improv team would have eight guys and one woman; that was still pretty standard. If you were a woman improviser, it was actually kind of an advantage because, if you were halfway decent, you’d get a lot more stage time Picture Quote #1

Well people love to go dirty and stuff like that. It’s funny, because even really dirty things can kind of inspire, but all things inspire really dirty improv and monologues. So then really dirty things can inspire the exact opposite. It’s kind of a crapshoot Picture Quote #1

I got involved in improv comedy. It settled me down when I was getting wild. I was sort of an evil teenager smashing up my cars and drinking and driving, let’s just say, a lot Picture Quote #1

Improv plays such a huge role in finding great lines - you’ll be surprised at what comes out of your mind inadvertently. A lot of times it’s better than a script you’ve worked out ahead of time Picture Quote #1

When I started stand-up, the first thing I did was to take an improv class Picture Quote #1

It was improv that really helped me start coming up with recipes and just believe in my instincts. That’s why the first recipe I made up was ‘I Ain’t Chicken Chicken’ because I finally felt bold and fearless in the kitchen, which was an entirely new feeling for me Picture Quote #1

The improv stuff, that’s always surprising so a lot of times that’s really funny Picture Quote #1

We have over an hour of footage with Ken Marino. Same with Kevin Smith. Because you never know, when you let people who are so talented at improv go, what you’re going to get. You don’t want to strangle them with your own words, because probably what they’re going to say is way better Picture Quote #1
