What Makes A Good Improvisation?


These are some things that will make a good improvisation:
- Always say "yes" - this will allow you and your partner to keep an entertaining scene to keep going and not become circular or become boring for the audience.
- Go with whatever you're given - feed off the other person and anything they say can be taken as a suggestion of their character or might give you something to work off, so make sure you respond to anything.
- Respond appropriately to things - do not break character and start laughing. Stay in the scene and control your emotions, so you are able to keep the scene going and the energy right, which will work for the audience.
- LISTEN - listening is the most important part of a good improvisation. Listening to what your partner is saying and taking all of the details or ideas that they give you. 
Save some information - remember what they tell you and use it back to them. Repeating facts will make your scene become more believable.
