Listen Later

Picture this: you're standing on stage with no script, no idea what's coming next, and a crowd waiting for you to make them laugh. That's the thrill of improv comedy, and it's exactly what Luke Ward, an improv teacher at Montclair Film, helps us uncover.

We discuss the challenges and vulnerabilities of performing improv, share personal experiences from our journeys in comedy, and explore how improv skills can enhance everyday life and creative endeavors. The conversation takes a turn as they attempt an improv skit, highlighting the importance of collaboration and the "yes, and" principle. Luke also shares his favorite spot in New Jersey, Lambertville, making this episode a delightful blend of laughter, learning, and local recommendations.
