I left my theatre the Loose Moose almost twenty years ago, and I hardly ever go back. Sometimes I go back to do a Mask class. They're doing more of this than I was doing when I left. Often it's the same improvisers but they're older. And now, they don't care if the theatre's full or not.

The improvisation had to be in public, because you only get value playing to strangers.

In life most of us are highly skilled at suppressing action. Bad improvisers block action often with a high degree of skill. Good improvisers develop action.

Very hard to get an audience. So if you're going to fill the theatre, you can't just rely on old stuff.

Every theatre worth anything has somebody in the middle of it who is driving it; like Joan Littlewood with her theatre.

Trying to do better is trying to be better than you actually are, and I don't think you can do that.
