a combination of different media or materials. A work on canvas that
combines paint, ink, and collage could properly be called a "mixed
media" work.

- Improvisation in theater is the playing of dramatic scenes without

written dialogue & with minimal or no predetermined dramatic
activity.
- Most or all of what is performed is created at the moment it is
performed. In its purest form, the dialogue, action, story, and
characters are created collaboratively by the players as the
improvisation unfolds in present time, without use of an already
prepared, written script. An important goal of improvisation is to
enable the individual to develop spontaneity which is necessary in
creating the illusion of reality. The improvisation teacher must
expose students to the theatrical environment through various
games rather than lectures.
Forms of Improvisation
Short form – short scenes constructed from predetermined game.
Long form – scenes related by story or character.

- It is an improvisational, non-exhibition, process centered form of

drama in which participants are guided by a leader to imagine,
enact, and reflect upon human experiences.
- This process allows students to actively explore a subject or
question through imaginative play that is facilitated by a leader and
may involve a variety of improvisational activities.
- These activities are not scripted or memorized, and they allow
students to synthesize various educational concepts into a
personally meaningful form.
