ONE WORD AT A TIME STORY
This is an exercise to train group narrative. All players sit in a circle. A story is told one word at a time. Each player provides one word of a sentence. The end of a sentence can be indicated by a player saying `period` although that is not necessary.
Emotion Orchestra
Mrs. Hancock is the conductor
Mike & Sophia are the "Sadness Section"
Victor & Andrew are the "Joy Section"
Jorge is "Fear Section"
Daphne is the "Anger Section"
Gui is the "Confused Section"
Each time the conductor points or gestures to a particular section, the performers will make emotional noises (try to avoid words -- make sounds that conveys the feelings). When the conductor raises his hands high, the volume of the performers increase. Hands low, the volume decreases.
Just as a musician performs during an impassioned symphony, the conductor of the emotion orchestra warms the performers up, pointing to them one at a time at first, and then to more sections at once, eventually building to a climactic frenzy.
Performers must make certain that they pay attention to the conductor and become silent as soon as the conductor points to another group.
Scene Replay:
This game, involving two people, has a scene play out (based on a given scenario), then requires the two players to replay or reinterpret the scene according to supplied suggestions.
Suggestions can be
- an emotion (joy)
- time period (Medieval),
- or genre of TV/film/theater (Western).
