Story4 out of 5 stars 282
In an irresistible invitation to lighten up, look around, and live an unscripted life, a Stanford University professor and master of the art of improvisation explains how to adopt the attitudes and techniques used by generations of musicians and actors. These secrets are currently being taught to entrepreneurs, engineers, and first responders in a crisis as well as housewives and Alzheimer caregivers. Let's face it: Life is something we all make up as we go along.

Whether or not you ever plan to step onto the stage, this book of pithy and practical life advice is bound to satisfy. It feels like the distillation of centuries of wisdom. From the outside, improv looks like a magical conjuring of stories out of thin air. Patricia‘s book breaks improvisation down and makes it accessible to everyone seeking to discover everyday spontaneity.
