Too Many Connections

Don’t let making connections cause you to lose focus on the scene.

I’m Michael Bradt for The Bit Theater. I believe that there is such a thing as making too many connections in an improv scene. Connections and callbacks are fantastic and gratifying and should definitely be used. However, don’t lose the forest through the trees. If you are throwing out dozens of connections and callbacks, you might lose the interesting thread of the scene in all the chaos. Don’t let making connections cause you to lose focus on the scene. That’s your improv tip for the day. Stay safe and stay healthy, and I will see you next time.
