Maestro Impro™ is an ensemble format featuring a large cast and directors. The show structure is an elimination format where a mix of improvisers are randomly chosen to play scenes with each other. Two Directors set up scenes and (if necessary) direct the players when needed. All scenes are scored by the audience based on how much they enjoyed it. The players given the highest scores continue while those with lower scores leave the show, eliminated after each round until only one improviser remains. This player is The Maestro.
The performers understand that Maestro is most effectively played with benevolence and good nature towards the other players, with the ultimate goal of creating an enjoyable evening for the audience leaving them with memories of engaging scenes full of variety.
This official guide book, approved by Keith Johnstone, is a resource for information and inspiration about how to play Maestro Impro™. It has been created to provide assistance for groups just starting out, to give direction to those who are unsure if they are heading in the right direction, and as a reminder to groups who have been playing a long time.
Here you will find information about the history of Maestro Impro™, the skills needed to play, the spirit and
theory behind the concept, as well as practical information on the structure, the components and how to put them together in performing the format. Throughout you will find useful Keith Johnstone quotes, suggestions that might inspire discussion points with your group, and interesting Maestro Impro™ notes to aid you in successfully and enjoyably playing Maestro Impro™.
Maestro Impro™ is a registered trademark. To produce or perform Maestro Impro™ you must obtain the rights through the International Theatresports Institute (ITI).

About the Author
Shawn's home base is Canada which he is rarely in. He works with people in Europe, Asia, Latin America, Australasia and Africa 9 months of the year. Broadly speaking, Shawn teaches workshops and performs. More specifically he engages performers, businesses people, health care professionals, education experts, scientists, toymakers, dancers, psychologists and even the military in various forms of improvisation and movement to make their world a little better. Over the past three decades Shawn has been asked to teach in 43 countries. Memorable visits include Universities in Oxford and Cambridge, a roofless building in Peru, the National Theatre of Iceland, and Opera of Norway, a Favela in Brazil, palaces in Germany, circuses in Poland and Colombia. Shawn is proud to be one of the few Impro teachers authorized by the International Theatresports Institute to teach Keith Johnstone's formats Theatresports(TM), Maestro Impro(TM) and Gorilla Theatre(TM).
In 1987 Steve stumbled onto improvisation at Loose Moose Theatre in Calgary. Spontaneity, play and accepting ideas made sense to him but his responsible side said "go back to school". He completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Calgary with Keith Johnstone as his acting teacher. Today Steve teaches Keith's half (trance) mask technique and Impro. He integrates full masks, puppetry, and clowning into improvisation courses and shows topics around the world.He shares his time between Banff, Canada and Stuttgart, Germany. In Canada, He produces and performs nature and children's theatre writing and devising plays for schools, museums, zoos and national parks. In Germany he plays improvisation and scripted theatre with Improtheater Stuttgart. Projects include a play about dementia, a kid's touring show about climate change, teaching and developing improvisation formats locally, and performing in regular Impro shows.Steve is proud to be one of the few Impro teachers authorized by the International Theatresports Institute to teach Keith Johnstone's formats Theatresports(TM), Maestro Impro(TM) and Gorilla Theatre(TM).
