Yes. I'm constantly seeking ways to practice my improv skills in rehearsal, and love reading up and thinking about improv. But whenever I do a show, I try to just throw myself in and trust that what I've learned/practiced/thought about will serve me subconsciously. The best shows are still the ones I can't remember too well, because I was just in the flow.ratliff wrote:My model of improv right now is this: I want to rigorously develop certain practices and skills, including the technical mastery we're discussing ... but they're not the point. The point is to express the moment as fully as possible, and without the technical skills I can't do that.
