Badra n'arrivant toujours pas...

C'est encore TT qui s'y colle...en version courte cette fois-ci mais toujours en anglais!


General aims of the session : -creating the theatrical group, listening to each other.
                                               -working on texts and objectives of the characters in a scene

1.Warming up

First, the usual: the circle, warming the voice and the body up.
We also practiced how to laugh, mechanically and more naturally : the first person had to laugh mechanically, the second a bit more sincerely, etc etc...
And we played at the "Zip Zap Bang Brrr" game. Aim : listen to each other, be right there at the right time and concentrate.
But the most amazing surprise came from the counting game: in circle, we had to count from 1 to as far as possible, in no particular order, the only rule being not to talk at the same time otherwise it was back to 1 again. Well, TT has to acknowledge: the Froggies are great at that game! Which means: great listening to each other, the group functions as a team. Well done!

2. Home

TT's obsession with that song is driving us mad!
This time we had to dance to the music, first randomly and then following a leader.
Very difficult as usual when the music is fast and much easier when the music slows down. But again, good listening to each other.

3. The texts

Working in groups of two or three, we had to write short dialogues that were performed by another group.
We kept on working on the objectives of the characters in the scene.
It was interesting to see how a scene a group wrote could be completely reinterprated by another group.

And that's it for today!
"-Thank you Badra for that amazing summary.
-You're welcome oh you my favourite teacher ever who didn't yell even if, as usual, i had not done my homework..."
