Does any one know who the puppeter was on the Martha stewart appearance ?

Frank Oz or David Rudman

I can't stand improv classes or improv theater nothing is more annoying to me . So what are you guys doing to improve you improv skills ?

thanks

I'm taking classes with The Groundlings. They've helped tremendously.

Yeah I've been down there but I just feel the exercise they do are super corny and really have no basis on true great Improv. If I see someone get pointed to and they cluck like a chicken one more time I’m going to flip my wig . But maybe it just comes from within and really can't be taught
Also a good personality and great sense of humor doesn’t hurt.

I have no idea what you're talking about here. Structured improv comedy really helps. There are rules and techniques. Also, they have exercises that really free you up once you're able to master the rules.

I'm in my fourth set of classes with them and have yet to cluck like a chicken. :wink:
