"I have taken two different workshops in improvisation through Durham Improvisation and Bad Dog Theatre. It's an incredibly important skill that I have continued to develop through my 7 year career as an actor."

Don't overthink it! Formal training or not, you do have experience with improv! Some of the techniques you already use to get into character stem from spontaneous thought or action to propel you forward and help you try new things.

If you were a part of a comedy group, great! Talk about some of your most successful performances. Were you able to read the other actors well? How did you use your senses and your intuition to keep the material flowing? Think about the games you played in acting class. As you talk about your experience, share what has been helpful from using improve in your acting. How does it help you to relate better with other characters and get in touch with your emotions?

"I may not have formal training in improvisation but I believe that my 4 years' experience as an actor has given me many opportunities to improvise on set. This improv experience includes jumping in when a cast member forgets their lines, and also playing warm up games before practice begins."
