Yeah, But Why?

The infinite possibilities of improv are a big part of what makes it magical, but often compels us to invent too much premise and push too many ideas in our scenes. Instead of premise, we'll focus on character-based scenes where we answer the why--what motivates these characters' behavior? When we dig deep on character, point-of-view, and relationship we don't need to rely on premise to make our scenes interesting and funny.
