“Improv is freakin' magic.”

“The secret lies in improv's structure—a set of rules that allows players to stop worrying and second-guessing and to ease into the moment and be completely engaged with their fellow performers.”

“The best-known improv rule is probably “Yes, And,” or the rule of agreement. It's a pretty simple concept, really. When one improviser says something, the other one has to go along with it—but also add something else to the scene. Then improviser number one agrees and adds more. A scene is born!”

“Another thing that gets improvisers “out of their heads” is their childlike sense of discovery and play.”

“I truly believe we all just want to be seen and heard. In order to feel seen and heard, and therefore valued, we have to learn how to see and hear others—without judgment, and with an unbreakable sense of wonder and curiosity.”

An entire book of games and fun that gets us out of our heads, gets us playing again.
