I wish I had known about ImprovEverywhere earlier in my life, as I’ve been doing somewhat related ‘public spontaneous events’ by myself and with friends for over a decade now. Joining a broader community would have been supportive and fun (it can get a little scary or lonely at times)… but hey, no point whining about what can now change! I ’ve just found out that they’ve recently started a BOOMING Ning social site, which includes local groups getting organized for lively local chaos. To get a taste of ImprovEverywhere’s ‘art’, the below video is probably my favorite ‘mission’ by the NY group yet….over 200 ’secret agents’ spontaneiously freezing in the NY subway. Brilliant! It seems that most of their events are just for fun, though I’m not sure. Personally, I’d like to add some more ‘meaningful purpose’ to the events I’m a part of, but hey, maybe the deepest message one can say is “Have fun”. (Like the bumper sticker: “Maybe the Hokey-Pokey IS what its all about!”)Enjoy!
