Out of curiosity, how many of you actually watch improv or even perform it? For those of you who don't know what it is, shame on you. The more notorious example of improv is Whose Line is it Anyway.
A lesser known fact about myself is that I'm on my high school's improv team XD Comedy Sportz, so it's pretty competitive. At times. It's really great watching the other teams play, because you're not sure what to expect so when it hits you, you're completely paralyzed from laughing so hard. _________________

I was just doing improv games in Drama today. I'm not the greatest, but I'm not to bad, to do it.
The ionly real problem is that our teacher makes us improv what he wants to see, he makes up the characters, setting, and basic plot, never lets us do it by ourselve. _________________

for some reason, i thought you were going to talk about improv in music. and, yes, i do that.
but, as for comedy improv, not so much. i'll watch Whose Line every once in a while, but not much more than that. _________________ just call me xfyre. not xfyrethespooky. |

Whose line is it anyway used to literally make me cry from laughter. I have never tried it myself though, but it looks like fun. _________________ Name shortened from Serenade.exe |

I did uncut Anime improv at the library last summer.Tis spur of the moment and got some fans out of it.Sadly...I got booted off halfway through the act.>_< Where's the justice in this world?
Still,Whose Line is a hoot.Loved watching it as a kid.:3 _________________ Things are going to be changing soon in the next few months.Stay tuned for updates and the like. |

A shame that most people don't like anime improv. It's really interesting to see someone try that, but then get shot (not literally) for misunderstood skits. Speaking of funny, is there any anime based on improv.? _________________ As a Deviant, I work alone on my projects.

Well, it wouldn't be improvision since it's all on a script DX _________________

Maybe if the improvisation was made into a script? O: _________________ The time is come. Bid farewell to your bloodstained past.

Age is a state of mind. Of course you may feel old on some boards. But there's older people here. |

True that! Besides, I guess not many of us on here are older than Megaman, but I'm one of them! XD I have fun not acting my age, except when it's absolutely necessairy ;P
As for improv, I loved watching Whose Line Is It Anyway. My favourite skits were scenes from a hat and props. By far the best ones! I took drama in grade 10, so I've done a little improv. I'm not so good on stage, but with my friends I've got a random flare~ _________________
