Art, including this type, is always open to interpretation, meaning the static definition you have provided is merely the foundation for which the play style is rooted. Its creation can take various forms as long as core parts are still tied with the base idea. In this case, the dialogue and plot will evolve through improvisation, and the characters are preconceived, which is perfectly acceptable.
I can guarantee that it will not be art in this case.
It isn't pure improv, mainly, because it's for a class and we're developing a basic acting foundation. We have done pure improvisation exercises though, and they're kind of hard, especially when there's no direction at all. I really prefer having something to go on.
Improvisational theatre (also known as improv or impro) is a form of theatre in which the actors use improvisational acting techniques to perform spontaneously. Actors typically use audience suggestions to guide the performance as they create dialogue, setting, and plot extemporaneously.
So there!
Inside each person lives two wolves. One is loyal, kind, respectful, humble and open to the mystery of life. The other is greedy, jealous, hateful, afraid and blind to the wonders of life. They are in battle for your spirit. The one who wins is the one you feed.
