Our theatre class only met twice this week. On Monday we played the game moose and the announcer game. I enjoyed the announcer game. In the announcer game, one pair of people acts as the announcers, and the other couple of people get to pantomime a scene. This game was entertaining because of how different it was each time. Just watching the game, it was interesting to see what scene the pantomimes would come up with, and how the announcers would describe it. It was also interesting participating in the game because of the dynamic between the announcers and the pantomimers. For example, the first time I was the pantomimer, I was more in control of the situation, but the second time, the announcers shaped the scene more. Even though that might not have been the intention of the exercise, it was very interesting to work around the things that the announcers were saying.
On Thursday, we played a game, of which the name escapes me. Two people would improvise a scene, and then whenever the audience called for it, one of them would pick up a card. The cards were statements or questions that we had written beforehand. I enjoyed playing this game because it forced me to go out of my comfort zone and improvise, but it also offered some guidance with the cards. The cards also made each scene very entertaining because of the way they took the scene in so many directions.
