It&#8217;s about making improv big and bold and unashamedly theatrical. It&#8217;s about dialogue delivered with the confidence of the written word, movement that seems choreographed, plot twists and revelations that no one saw coming (least of all the performers). Ultimately it&#8217;s about raising your performance level, making even more interesting choices and leaning into the idea of improv as art.
