About the Author

Edward J. Nevraumont began improvising with the Canadian Improv Games while in high school. Since then his improv scope has broadened considerably. He has worked in improvised dinner theatre, coached a high school improv team for six years, created the Kingston Improv Games, developed training materials, and facilitated events for drama teachers across Canada. He has studied many different improv schools of thought and worked with everyone from Keith Johnstone to Paul Sills, from Garry Austin to Michael Gellman. He has written training materials for utilizing improvisation in the business world for Queen's University School of Industrial Relations. Currently Edward is using his improvisation techniques as a manager with Procter and Gamble and as one of three directors of "Improv Toronto."



A graduate of the Queen's University Department of Drama, Nicholas P. Hanson teaches improv workshops in schools, universities, summer camps, and workshop settings. As General Manager of the Kingston Improv Games, a high school improv festival, Nicholas has served as a trainer, administrator, judge, adjudicator, host, and late-night problem solver. In his work as an actor, director, and designer of community theatre projects, Nicholas relies on improvisational techniques as an alternative to traditional processes. Currently, Nicholas is adapting his improv curriculum for implementation in social organizations as a means of conflict resolution and societal awareness.
