Synopsis

Applied Improvisation has become an important and growing field of exploration, research, and human cooperation. The book goes far beyond an introduction to alternative applications of Improvisational Comedy. It also delves into underlying theories that are usable in all human endeavors, from personal enrichment to every aspect of organizational development and cooperation. It includes working ideas, theory, structures, methodology, stories, notes, references, and practices, as well as exercises that can be used in any setting where learning and change are desired. This revised edition is also about tapping sources of creativity, in your gatherings and in your life. The material is intended to be used by individuals, within families, community development organizations, in government, in the military, in not-for-profit systems, religious gatherings, among business owners, executives, and companies, by corporate career-track leaders, trainers, educators, teachers, motivational presenters, and all others who understand how important it is to communicate effectively and easily, and to work cooperatively as we trudge our way through this ever increasingly complex, urgent, delicate, and small world.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Robert Lowe is a retired Improvisation elder. He was the founder and chief executive of Improvisation Incorporated, a pioneering educational consulting firm specializing in the use of Improvisation Theater techniques for organizational development, and for business, professional, and interpersonal communication. In his thirty-six-year exploration of Improvisation, Lowe has been an observer, a dancer, a player, a teacher, a director, and a mentor in the uses of Improvisation for purposes beyond performance. In Atlanta, Georgia he is known as "The Godfather" of Improvisation, having founded and directed the first Improv Comedy Theatre Troupe in Georgia - The Lightside City Players - and The Next City Comedy Theatre, the first Improvisational Comedy Theatre in the Southeastern U.S. More than anything else, Robert Lowe is a man who one day nearly 40 years ago found the power of focus on the current instant, and has been unwilling, and unable to let go of its pursuit for even a moment since. When he talks about Improvisation, and about creativity, and about the human spirit, and about the power of spontaneity, and the salvation of human collaboration, his eyes light up, the air crackles, and his feet only barely touch the ground. He truly sees the explosive development of Improvisational Thinking as the next, and most vital, step in the evolution of human culture.
