Super Scenes Tonight!
by educ95si
I really enjoyed freeze tag tonight. Two of my favorite scenes were something as follows:
Improvisers M and B start the scene with M standing up with both her hands up like she’s gripping something and B lying down on the floor.
M: (starts to move her hands like she’s climbing a ladder)
B: God, it sucks to fall off the ladder.
It could have been the other way roun but it doesnt matter because it was amazing! It totally cracked me up. They started from their physical poses and neither of them had any idea what they were in for but within the first line spoken they had justified it perfectly.
Improvisers M and P start out by M pointing something at P.
M: (makes shooting noise)
P: AAAh, you have wounded me
M: (accepts the offer of “wounding”) Yes, I will keep you alive because I want you to spend your life in pain because you poisoned my fish.
P: (accepting the offer of poisoning fish) Your fish laughed at me…
It was great. Each improviser built on top of what the last one said working together to create the scene. I think this speaks directly to Lindsay’s last post titled “When you have nothing to say…”
Thanks for a great class everyone!
