Customer Reviews
Complaining - sorry
It could be that this book is for people further along in their improv life than “beginner” like myself, but it seems really odd that a book about improv comedy has every single improv opportunity scripted. Literally, the opposite of improv. When do I get practice not following a script?
I would not have paid $30 for this if I had researched more.
