La improvisaci�n es un arte vibrante de espontaneidad e impulso. P�blicos de todo el mundo acuden en masa a shows donde " todo puede pasar!". Pero en
el coraz�n de muchas compa��as de impro se esconde una contradicci�n, una estrategia enga�osa. A los estudiantes que se apuntan a clases se les ense�an
"Las Reglas" la forma correcta e incorrecta de ser creativos. La exploraci�n se sustituye por la emulaci�n y la curiosidad por la obediencia. C�mo demonios ha pasado esto?
Patti Stiles es una improvisadora, actriz, directora y profesora de renombre internacional, cuyas habilidades interpretativas y profundo conocimiento de la t�cnica brillan en el escenario y sus clases. En Improvise Freely nos muestra c�mo las "reglas" que supuestamente garantizan el �xito, en realidad nos confinan en
una falsa apariencia de espontaneidad y obstaculizan nuestra creatividad. Le da la vuelta a "Las Reglas" y demuestra que existen otros enfoques.
Est� bien hacer preguntas? Por qu� hay preguntar qui�n, qu� y d�nde?
Y si el S�, y adem�s no es tan bueno como parece?
Este libro nos anima a explorar el laberinto por nuestra cuenta, en lugar de seguir a un gu�a tur�stico. En lugar de darnos un mapa, Patti Stiles nos ofrece una linterna.
