There isn’t anything funnier than the truth! By embracing what's happening in the moment, you will find that the biggest and best laughs come from honesty. By playing improv games and performing short scenes, you will create grounded characters and strong relationships that focus on the emotional connections between you and your teammates. Rather than going for the joke, you will find that by reacting truthfully, the funny will come. Not only is improv fun, but it is also a tool for life: it can make you a better listener, public speaker, and creative thinker.
