Improve through Improv: the sequel

Old Man Improv here, about to head off to Ottawa, for the 30-somethingth national finals of the Canadian Improv Games. I have the joyous opportunity to give away my trophy to the winning team.

Improvisation is like the fountain of youth, it keeps the mind agile, you have creative responses to situations around you, it's a playful point of view. The jolt of youthful, positive energy that I get from the Games propells me like a rocket into the next year.

Last year, we had teams from Australia come and play with us, and we did the feet-in-the-air pledge (from 6:30 to 8:00 on the video, roughly.)

What does this have to do with running for Mayor of Toronto?

By now, tens of thousands of you graduates are living here in Toronto, and somewhere in your memory is the joy and the positive experience of being involved with the improv games, whether you were a player, a friend/relative or spectator, you know what an optimistic experience that was.

Now I call upon you, you who have become artists, doctors, lawyers, politicians; now is the time for us to join our energies together in an improv revival to help revive the vision of Toronto. Join me on April 28th, get your improv muscles together as we improve through improv.
