A complete guide to running improv-style activities with senior groups when you have no performance background, no comedy training, and no interest in becoming a performer. This is not about being funny. It's about knowing what to do.

Improv is a set of principles for group interaction — accept what others offer, build on it, share the stage, treat every response as valuable. That's not comedy training. That's group facilitation. This guide translates 30 years of professional improv experience into language and tools that activity directors can use tomorrow.

What you get:
— Complete guide to running 8 improv-style activities with senior groups
— Exactly what to do when residents disengage
— How to get genuine laughter without performing or forcing it
— Framework for handling silence with care rather than panic
— Tips for working with mixed cognitive ability levels in one room
— The four core principles explained in plain language with specific application
— Written for activity directors, not actors

The single biggest mistake in this kind of programming is filling every silence. Some people need more time to process or decide whether to speak. The guide gives you specific language for offering a pause without making it awkward.

This pairs with any other product in this shop — use it as your foundation before running any improv-based activity.
