Turtle Wisdom:
Del Close said it best...
"Im not just interested in churning out more improvisational theatre groups; im curious to know what improvisation tells us in terms of man and the language. Can a group of people improvise together and whats the most efficient way of going about it, breaking down barriers so you get good results almost immidiately. Improvisation is not just cleverness, its an actor living his life onstage. Not that we get the material through improvisation, but that we get a certain kind of material you dont get any other way."
"I think the point is that beyond the deepest tragedy there is laughter."
