GAME AHOY!
Learn to spot and develop the games that work.
In a clown improvisation, a game can start in the blink of an eye, with a sigh of pleasure or an itch that’s difficult to scratch or the creaking underfoot of a wooden floorboard… Finding a game to play is not the problem, the difficulty lies in recognising that one has already started and knowing how best to develop it.
Why learning to quickly recognise a game will prove fruitful:
1) If it arises spontaneously, it will be authentic and easy to play.
2) If your audience likes it, they will want to see how you develop it.
3) A single game can guide and sustain an entire improvisation.
In this workshop, we will explore the types of games that fascinate audiences, learn how to detect them when they begin and find some of the best ways to extend and develop them. You’ll be invited to have fun while remaining attentive to the tell-tale signs in the audience; those all-important signals that show you the way forward.
Game Ahoy! guarantees to help you maintain clarity and simplicity whilst playing games that are fluid, agile and, of-course, fun to play and watch.
“We do not quit playing because we grow old, we grow old because we quit playing.” Oliver Wendell Holmes
