Improv Comedy Ideas
After the acting class did a sort of improv game that had most people stumped I came up with a lot of ideas that I thought you could put in a hat and have people choose if they needed a prompt: it's based on if you start with one person, like on Whose Line is it Anyway, and improvise something with an imagined prop perhaps, and then someone can come in and someone else can tap in and take over...So here are some ideas I wrote down: "Who's next? What can I do for you?" (at a return register, DMV, pharmacy, etc.) "I'm sorry, sir you're card was declined..." (at a restaurant, department store, etc.) "Hurry! They're here! We need to hide!Where's you...(laser gun, etc.) weapon? Here, do you know how to use a (gun, banana, etc.) "It's your serve!" (hold racquet or paddle) "Sing I"m a lumberjack song." "Here are the details you asked for on the ..." (new job applicants, war-peace treaty) "You look tired Mr./Madame president..." "It works better if you use clay instead of jello." "Do you know why I asked you to stay after class?" "So you want two dozen roses and what else?..." "Welcome to (Domino's/Pizza Hut, etc.) how may I help you?" " And ThAT'S your mission if you choose to accept it!" "Wait. You're better off riding THIS horse. He's slow." "And you sprinkle on the (salt and pepper) to finish, and Voila!" (on a cooking TV show segment) "The secret to a good author portrait for your book is to look mysterious..." (holding camera) or "The secret to a good Instagram photo is to hold the camera above your head instead of below..." (demonstrates) "This is Katy Mc Cullough with KRON4 News on the scene of Hurricane Lana and we have heard there's 50 mph gale force winds approaching and most people have already evacuated; Excuse me ma'am? Are you planning to evacuate? What are you doing out here in a swimsuit??
