April 20, 2015 - April 24, 2015 Weekly Agenda for Acting Class



 

 

 

 

Monday, April 20th:

Regular schedule today!
Improv:
Genesis, Courtesy of Anton
Two people start a scene with a "who - relationship" and a "what - what are they doing?' As the scene progresses, a third person can clap herself into the scene and taking something that the actors have said can go back to that reference and act  it out. For example, if one of the actors mentions a trip to Disneyland, then the third actor can act out the trip to Disneyland, even becoming Walt Disney, himself.
