I’m Michael Bradt for The Bit Theater. One of the biggest compliments I’ve ever received as an improviser is that I am good at “playing off the ball.” Since you’re an improviser, let me explain that sports reference. One of my strengths is that even when I’m not the focal point of the scene, my character is always reacting to what is happening around him or her. Remember that your character is real and is hearing things that affect him or her even when not being directly addressed. Don’t react so aggressively that you pull focus away from the crux of the scene, but make sure that you’re always reacting. That’s your improv tip for the day. If you have a rehearsal, class, audition, or show tonight, break a leg, and I will see you next time.
