Recently, I received a call from a woman and her belief is that she is too old. She is turning 70 this year, and has been advised to lie on her online profiles. She does not feel right doing this and asked me for my advice.

"A talent for speaking differently, rather than for arguing well is the chief instrument of cultural change," said philosopher Richard Rorty. In these days of cultural challenge, we need instruments of cultural change. And it seems to me that Applied Improvisers are offering a talent for speaking differently to the world. - from Paul Z. Jackson, president of the Applied Improv Network.

In my experience with individuals and groups, this single, simple technique leads into realms of creativity, producing results not only in innovative and unexpected scenes, but also in the experience of co-creation and possibilities not realized before.
