You cant be controlling in improv.

Matt Walsh

I had a teacher who recommended I take improv classes in Chicago - I'm from Evanston, Illinois - so I did improv classes at Improv Olympic, and that kind of opened me up.

Lauren Lapkus

We live in a time where improv is king and people love improv, and I think there's a time and a place for that and people who are really good at structuring improv.

Aya Cash

I think it's a lot richer than what we call fleshy improv, I think it's very funny, puppet improv and fleshy improv.

Brian Henson

I was on the improv team in high school, and after I graduated, I joined an improv company that had been established 10 years prior to me getting there. They did longform improv, and I fell in love with it. It's acting, character creation, collaborative, artistic expression and comedy - and it's scary. It was a big rush.

Tatiana Maslany

I had been on this improv team at this really great improv theater. It's called iO now. It used to be called Improv Olympic. They have showcases for Lorne Michaels and other writers and people who work at 'SNL' usually about once a year, although I don't know if it always happens.

Vanessa Bayer

I think with improv - and I say it all the time because it's become such a catch thing that you talk about improv - if the scene is well-written, you don't need to improv. But that being said, if something strikes you in the moment and, most importantly, you know where the scene is supposed to go, it's no different than method acting.

Vince Vaughn

But the classic Tenacious D songwriting is Jack or myself will have an idea - I might have a riff - and we'll improv. And once Jack's feeling it, we turn on the tape recorder and start jamming, improv on that riff, improv on those lyrics, and then go back and see if there's anything good in there.

Kyle Gass

I take improv classes. Improv is something I can use in any aspect of life.

Vinny Guadagnino

When you're doing improv for seven years, you're an old soul of the improv world.

Kurt Braunohler

I'm terrified of improv. Improv in a show or in front of an audience sounds terrifying.

Elizabeth Olsen

It's so much harder to make a living off improv. Improv is so rarified and for such a specific audience.

Kurt Braunohler

I'm an improviser. I came up doing improv at the U.C.B. Theater in New York for seven years. That's where I started, so improv is what I love.

Rob Riggle

I was the cocktail waitress, and Sandra Bullock was the host, and this guy came in and persuaded me to try improv with Gotham City Improv.

Jennifer Coolidge

I put so much energy into with improv. You can only perform it at a place where people are, essentially, taking improv classes so that they just appreciate what's happening.

Kurt Braunohler

I took an improv class in 2005 in Chicago at ComedySportz, which was short-form, more of a games-based improv. I remember it being real fun and helping with my stand-up. If I did an improv class, and then I did stand-up later, I felt looser on stage and more comfortable.
