Customer comments on this selection.

Health Care Not bad
This is the first improv book I haver ever read; as a result, I was very new to the concept of basic improv and learned pretty much the solid foundation of improv. Yet for somebody more advanced, and read other improv, they might not find this book helpful.

The downside to this book, is that it is very boring and presented in a technical way like you are reading a boring college textbook. That is what I hated about his book, but the author made up for that by providing practical examples to illustrate her point. If it weren't for that, there is no way anybody can learn anything from this book.

Overall, a great improv book.


Health Care So that is how it is done
I have been doing improv comedy for 5 years and now I know what we were doing wrong and what we were doing right. If you are thinking about starting out in improv this is the book to start with, if you are doing impov and have not yet read it, buy it.

Health Care The Manual Of Improv
Even if you're not a "long-form" improviser, this book is a must read for anyone actively working in an improv group.

Health Care This book is The Bible of improv.
Any improviser worth his/her salt owns at least one copy. And can quote from it directly.

Health Care The definitive book on The Harold
I began taking a long form (The Harold)improv class about a year ago. Halfway through my term, the instructor suggested a few books to read on the subject. After reading through the first few pages of this manual, it became clear to me that this was the class that I had been taking for over a year. Charna Halpern-with a fee quotes and exercises by the late, great Del Close-have put together an excellent "how to" book that any improviser, from beginning to proffessional would find etxremely helpful. For anyone interested in imrovisation this is the book for you!
