Marcy’s note: Viola Spolin is the mother of improv in America, as we know it, because she worked at the Hull House in Chicago under a social worker named Neva Boyd and with Neva’s mentorship and her theatre background, got really good at devising games to support non-actors in what we would today call social-emotional learning (emotional intelligence, communications skills, etc.) Viola Spolin was the mother of Paul Sills, one of the founders of Second City. Her granddaughter and Paul Sills daughter, Aretha, teaches pure Spolin work, here in Los Angeles and is now moving to do this online. It’s a great time to explore improv games, as you don’t need to drive anywhere!
