Robert Lowe

Robert Lowe is the author of Improvisation, Inc.: Harnessing Spontaneity to Engage People and groups, (Jossey-Bass Pfeiffer, 2000). This book is the pioneering work in the use of Improvisational Theatre techniques for organizational development and business and professional communication. It is available at Amazon.com in both print and audio. It is currently being translated into the Arabic language.

Robert is known as the Grandfather (sometimes the Godfather) of Improvisational Comedy in Atlanta having founded "The Lightside City Players" in 1983, "Comedy Atlanta" in 1985, and "The Next City Comedy Theatre" in 1988. In 1989 Robert had a significant influence in the founding of Georgia Tech's "Let's Try This" Improv Comedy movement.
For nearly 20 years he has brought Improv technique, fun, and exploration to business and organizations of every size and form. His work is known in more than 20 countries, and it has been noted that either Robert, or his students, and now students of his students, have had an influence on almost every venue of Improv comedy in the Atlanta region.

Mr. Lowe's public Improv Comedy Workshops have provided the inspiration and the formula for programs that have placed hundreds of non performers on live Improv stages throughout the region.

Of this event, Robert Lowe says, "I am both pleased and proud to be included in the first 'Black Box Improv Festival,' and hope that all who consider attending take note that the LTT Players of Georgia Tech continue to provide the longest running Improvisational Theatre venue in the Southeastern United States."
