Well, this was quite the interesting class. I believe we had 13 new players. My uncertainty is because I only got a chance to meet 8 of them before we started (Welcome William, Selone, Noah, Caroline, Riley, Syndney, Conrad, and Sam) plus William’s sister (who came late and I didn’t write her name down), along with 4 others who came in a bit later and I didn’t get a chance to meet. There may have been others, or I may have lost count.
At one point, there were 31 people in class, so we were just under half being made up of folks who hadn’t done improv before.
We started with Character Intro, Pass the Box, and One Word Story. Our exercise was Gift Giving. Then everyone did a 5 Letter Word scene. Our musical exercise was Beasty Rap, and then we did Entrances and Exits. We filled the last minutes with Freeze Tag.
It was amazing how enthusiastic all the new folks were. Those who were brand new as well as those who’ve only been to one or two other classes were all eager to jump up and participate in the games. It was a very fun class.
