About Me

Hi my name is Louis Hirsch I am an improviser though exactly what if anything that means will be discussed in a future Rant.  I  I have been involved in and performing improv for about eight years and been in a improv duo, playing most of the Chicago venues, called McGarnackle for about three. I have my own ideas about Improvisation And have started this page to share my ideas, frustration etc. ,about performing. It also serves to help me focus on what I need to do to improve my performance, Hopefully we can share and learn together.

I call it a Rant because it will often be stream of consciousness. And it will often start with something that bothers me about the way improv is taught or performed. It will I hope never come off as mean spirited or simply venting. But hopefully it will present a different way of looking at the subject(whether it is a better way is for you not me to decide).  In the words of the psychiatrist in “Portnoy’s Complaint” “now we can begin”.

    Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. However just imagine if you added some great pictures or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site could undeniably be one of the very best in its field. Wonderful blog!
