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

The best laughs are on the recognition of truth.

None of us really grow up. All we ever do is learn how to behave in public.

In a scene [where the improvisers must interact] without the letter S, the audience is waiting for you to lose - so they can laugh at you. Don't try to win.

Good improvisers seem telepathic; everything looks pre-arranged, This is because they accept all offers made—which is something no ‘normal’ person would do.

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.

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