Impro:
Improvisation and the Theatre
By Keith Johnstone
Impro is Keith Johnstone's ground breaking
book on improvisation. Impro lays the foundation
for substantive improvisation with strong narratives.
It exposes the mind's creative process and shows how
people have been trained to stifle their creativity.
More importantly, Impro shows how to release the imagination
and embrace failure. It is required reading for the
BATS Intermediate Series workshop.
