Great Tools For The Want To Be Comedian

I chose this title thinking that it would help me with group dynamics while working with my peers. Thinking myself quite a clever person. I thought I’d just pick up a few choice nuggets on how to entertain as well as get my point across during presentations. I found the book to be very detailed providing exercises and explaining the benefits of consistent practice in order to gain skills to perform on any level. I am now considering going to a class or two just to experience the highs of getting it right on stage.

Huge Hit with Our Theater Group

I picked this up to help freshen things up in our community theater group, and it was a total win. The games are fun, easy to follow, and actually got everyone laughing and participating—even the shy folks. We’ve used it in a few rehearsals now, and it’s really helped us build trust and loosen up. I also used a few exercises in a classroom setting, and they worked great there too. Super practical and fun to have on hand.

Helped Me Ditch Perfection and Just Go For It

I’ve always loved the idea of improv but froze up the moment I had to perform. This audiobook made it feel so accessible and fun. The games are easy to try, even solo or with friends, and I started feeling more confident after just a few sessions. It’s not about being funny it’s about showing up and playing. Perfect for anyone wanting to loosen up creatively without the pressure to get it right.

I grabbed this audiobook to shake up my routine and it delivered. The games are a blast, whether you’re brand new to improv or just looking to break out of your shell. It taught me how to think on my feet, roll with mistakes, and be more confident in everyday conversations. I’ve even used a few exercises at work and in social settings. If you want to build creativity and stop taking yourself too seriously, this playbook is pure gold.

Way more fun (and useful) than I expected!

Honestly grabbed this on a whim for a team-building event, and it turned out to be a total gem. I’ve never done improv before, and the thought of being “on” in front of others used to make me cringe—but this book makes it feel totally doable. The way the games are broken down made everything feel approachable. I ended up using it with coworkers and my kids, and somehow it works for both! Some of the group games were great icebreakers, and a few exercises even helped me with public speaking at work (bonus!).

The “Yes, And” mindset is such a small shift but made a big difference in how I interact with others—not just on stage, but in regular convos too. I didn’t expect to laugh this much or feel this relaxed trying something new. Super glad I picked this up.
