We're going to take a quick break and then we will be right back.
The funniest people who I've ever done improv with are often almost clueless as to why the laugh is happening.
And it's because they're so committed to just like saying the thing that they're seeing or they say something that is unusual, but is true to what they're feeling.
And that gets this huge laugh.
And it's so fun to play with them because they're they're unexpected, but they're also genuine.
And that's that's something that doesn't really work in other contexts.
But I think in real life, we love that, too.
Right.
Like you walk into a
room and it smells really bad and a bunch of people are pretending like it doesn't smell bad and then someone just goes it smells horrible in here that person calling out the reality of it is often the person where you're like okay at least that one person is real and I think in an improv scene that's often the funniest thing that a person can do is just to say exactly what is happening oh totally
You know, people talk about yes and is like we agree and then we build.
But I think there's this other piece in exactly what you said.
Right.
Someone starts a scene and they say, I have to go to the potty, daddy.
And then the person says, son, you're 35.
The reason denying what that person said, it is.
It doesn't work like on a technical comedic level.
It gets this cheap laugh and doesn't keep going.
But the thing that I've it took me a long time to put my finger on is one of the things that is so beautiful about improv is like I walk on stage and I am not my physical form.
I am not like a white dad in his late 30s.
