Improvisation Work: 

1)Scenes from Images--

3 minutes to create, then you will perform, and show the image (muse) to your audience

2) Sit, Stand, Lean

Audience gives characters, setting, and situation for 3 actors to explore, BUT one must be standing, one leaning, and one sitting at all times and these positions MUST change.  Actors will need to "set up" each other/help build by saying lines that allow others to move and change position.
