audience best clearly effective interested technique time
I think improvisation is a technique and a tool. I think that even the best of them fail most of the time, and in the end, the audience is not interested in how you got there but in what you're saying. The more clearly and concisely and artistically you say it, the more effective it is.
except
Improvisation is not a presentational form, except in small doses, or as a game. It's a tool.
