Hooray Bill is back - and again today's class was basically just running mini-Harolds in preparation for our class performance in two weeks. The mini-Harolds focused on full length openings and group games with shorter than normal scenes in between.
Here are the notes I took away from the work:
Follow the Distraction in a scene: The scene is not about ________
Mirror each other (especially in opening and group games)
Transitions in openings are as simple as one player simply making a different choice and everyone supporting all choices made
Don't leave people hanging out there on a limb - support each other
If you're playing with a lot of people on stage - not everyone has to be in a first beat scene - they can come in the second and third beats
Rarely does everyone in a group remember every detail about the show - but if everyone remembers one or two things then collectively you all remember enough to wrap it up
A great way to end is simply to return to the begining
