In appreciation of fearless high-school improvisers who create brilliant, electric scenes in seconds. Enormous thanks to Jeff Shanks and the Barrie North Improv Team, especially Brina Romanek, Scott Romanek and Mauricio Diaz, and to Kevin Jacquemain and Innisdale’s improv program. Thanks also to the dedicated folks at the Canadian Improv Games, and to Karen Krossing, Rae Smith and the Talk is Free Theatre improv gang. Much gratitude to Sarah Harvey and Orca for this opportunity and to Robin Stevenson for her cheerful editorial wisdom. And, finally, thanks to Rob and our kids for their support and love, especially Graham for freeing up time in my days and space in my brain.
