Sometimes in scenes we aren’t playing people. How do you train improv performers to support offers that aren’t people?
I went over warm-ups that encourage people to accept the reality, instead of judge the offer. The choice we make as a team are always so much more impressive than the unsupported choices of an individual. There is this African Proverb that says, “if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”
Escape from Gringotts (AKA: the Machine) really brought the team together. It was a great visual and way to support a move that wasn’t based in spoken words.
We also worked on organic openings and evolving from creation to creation.
