Attention lovers of improvisation!
Old Man Improv (me) is calling on the Improv Nation (you) to rise up and come play with me as I run for Mayor of Toronto. As you know, I had the joy of creating the Canadian Improv Games more than 30 years ago and there are tens of thousands of you out there who experienced what the Improv Games are all about.
Let us improvise together, and envision the could-be Toronto. Let's gather together on April 28th, place to be determined. Let's take the Improv energy and pour it into the electoral process of Toronto.
April 28th is a symbolic 180 days until election day, October 25th. Together we can do a 180 on our thinking about our city, and co-create the future of Toronto. Everything begins in the mind: building a house, writing a song, making a meal, it all begins in the mind; let's use ours creatively.
Let's use the same skills we developed as improvisers: to co-operate, to learn, to commit ourselves to the moment, and above all to have a good time.
This is a unique moment in Toronto. We will either continue drifting in the current direction, or we will change course! I invite you to jump on board the Good Ship Improv and help us chart the voyage into the future.
Improv scenarios to think about: Imagine it's ten years from now. What's different. Make it up, and send it along. Post your responses here! if it's a video, give us a link.
