Viola SpolinReseñas

My improv training has helped me more in my life and my career than most of my formal training. Spolin is the master.

Detailed book with lots of examples, tips for sidecoaching and evaluation, and background. Worth reading.

classic book by the mother of improv

"Spolin, who died in 1994, developed her improvisational techniques of using "game" exercises while teaching with the WPA Recreational Project in Chicago. Editor Sills, her son and founder of the Second City Theater, here updates over 200 classic exercises and adds 30 new ones. The creative group work and games, which can be used with all levels and ages of performers, and workshop techniques that enhance performers' natural abilities and intuition are all clearly explained. Also included are useful definitions of theater terms and a glossary of side-coaching phrases. Libraries with older editions will want this excellent update. Highly recommended for all theater arts collections." Howard E. Miller, Rosary H.S. Lib., St. Louis
