It takes about 100 sets just to get competently bad at improv.
I’m Michael Bradt for The Bit Theater. The improv equivalent of Malcolm Gladwell’s 10,000-hour rule is that it takes about 100 sets just to get competently bad at improv. Once you have 100 sets under your belt, you’ll likely either have figured out—or people will tell you—what you’re good at and what you’re bad at. Don’t get discouraged if you’re not knocking it out of the park, 10, 20, or even 50 sets into your improv career. You probably don’t even know what you don’t know yet. That’s your improv tip for the day. Stay safe, stay healthy, love each other, and I will see you next time.
