Oh for sure. We like to call it the "center of the universe" when it comes to comedy and improv. Seemed appropriate since its all about characters.

I'll join this group - even though I haven't acted in a awhile. But all the training that I had in improv classes, acting classes, onstage, and on film has really helped me become a better writer. My strength has always been in dialogue and I think that has come from improv training and having to slip into different characters and situations quickly.
