Comedy Improv Class #2

AHHHHHHHHHH! Sorry, I had to let that out. Class was fun yet again today! This time we had 2 people in the middle act out a random scene, then someone yelled FREEZE! and the people froze. Then the yeller would take sosmeone's place and start a new scene. I ended up going from a scene about a guy entering the girl's bathroom by accident, to a bird pooping on a statue. There was also this one activity when two people would act a scene with their hands behind their backs whilst two others were using their arms as the actors' arms. I had to be a mother preparing her son to go to war in the South. I was put with a super tall guy (well, tall to me) whose arms were dwarfing me in comparison. It was really funny. Anyhow, Bunches of kids in the Bloom-Danville area are gonna start a non-school related high school Odyssey of The Mind (OTM) team. Basically, it's like improv because it involves acting on the spot and a LOT of creativity. It's gonna be SO cool! We did more of the overaccepting too. We also had to think of 10 random things that were supposed to have nothing to do with each other. Now that was quite hard. Things can be similar in different ways.
By the way, my "chauffer" (Katie) had to go to a horse riding lesson today, so she dropped me off THIRTY MINUTES EARLY! If the instructor's son wasn't there to talk to me, I would have died of boredomness. I think I want a plum.

  1. I LOVE THE FREEZE GAME! I play that with my friend Rose! She's an amazing actress and singer, and we played that with Elizabeth and Amy! Good times... Continue on, Jen. ( ;
