Ever started an improv scene with a strong character voice…
only for it to slowly disappear?
That’s called **drift** — and it’s a consistency issue.
Whether you are an improviser, role-player or actor… Consistency is the ability to come back to the same voice again and again, within a scene and across multiple performances or sessions.
In this video, we explore the third pillar of strong character voice work: **Consistency.**
In it, I answer questions like:
– Maintain a recognisable character voice through a whole scene
– Stay stable under cognitive pressure
– Notice when a voice slips
– Recover it quickly without breaking flow
When consistency is weak, voices feel fragile.
When it’s strong, improv becomes easier and more playful.
If you’re not sure how consistent your character voices really are…
