"I'm a pediatrician, not an improv actor, Ed Reggi's class put me at ease and let me have
A LOT of fun while learning a fun new skill."
- Dr. Andrew Cronyn, workshop participant
"Through spontaneity we are re-formed into ourselves."
- Viola Spolin
"Paper Slip Theatre [Ed Reggi] has mastered the art of give and take."
- Christina Cronin, ImprovBoston
"Improv often deteriorates to scatological claptrap that goes for the easy laugh based exclusively on stereotypes, but Paper Slip Theatre provides an entertaining, disciplined approach to this art form that takes theatre back to its rudiments in play and action with spontaneous, in-the-moment sensibility."
- Nancy Crouse, KDHX Theater Critic
"No script. No staging. No idea what's coming next... I loved every minute."
- Judith Newmark, Post-Dispatch Theater Critic
"I thoroughly enjoyed your improv [workshops]. I didn't really know what to expect, and didn't even know exactly why I signed up, other than to challenge myself in a new way. The class was fabulous, beyond my expectations. Making things look spontaneous is different than being spontaneous. Being 'in the moment' is a rare feeling. Your guidance and leadership made the class work. I still laugh to myself about the invisible colored balls."
- Jim Holbrook, CEO of Zipatoni
"In a city with people that need to be practically pushed out of their homes to hop in their cars and go see a show, Reggi practically brought improv to the St. Louis entertainment scene. I remember seeing a fabulous troupe in Iowa City and wishing that there was something like that in St. Louis. I found it when I worked for Reggi. He had his head on straight. He had organized the business effectively and was using what he had to the best advantage."
- Elisa Spadaro, student and performer
