Basic Acting, fourth period [9/19]

Daisy was sitting in her chair again, this time looking like she planned to stay there for awhile.

"Welcome back everybody. Plese remember that your choices for you monologue are due next week. If you haven't found one yet, I have several resources available here and in my office." She gestured to the books on a table near the door.

"Today we're going to pair up and work on some improvisational scenes, however. I've assigned your pairs, but feel free to rearrange yourselves if your partner isn't here, or if you finish early and get bored or something. Your only guideline is that each of you must represent an animal in your scene. Cat, dog, bearded dragon, seahorse, I don't care. As long as it isn't vegetable, mineral, or human. A few guidelines for improvisation: never contradict your scene partner. A good phrase to keep in mind is 'yes, and'. Agree with what they've done, and build on that. You also might want to avoid asking questions, or bringing up anything that's inappropriate for schools. I'll watch each of your scenes and let you know what, if anything, you're doing wrong."

Daisy then gracefully got to her feet to post the list of groups on the board before sitting back down and sipping her coffee.

Hamlet Dane and John Dorian
Briar Moss and Angela Chase
John Crichton and Agnes Nitt
Jake Gavin and Zero Hopeless-Savage
Sakura Kinomoto and the twins Hitachiin


[ooc: As Daisy said, if you have to rearrange because someone isn't available or what have you, you may. I've tried to group based on general availability, but I don't have information on that from everyone, so it might not have worked perfectly. The post will be open for slow-play through the end of the week (and into the weekend if you need to wrap things up with your partner). Handwaving is always allowed]

The twins seem pretty pleased that they get to work with Sakura again, she'd been a very flexible actress before, and this whole 'animal' thing would prove to be interesting.

Briar grinned. "Well, last time I was a seagull so I have some 'bird' experience. You?"

"I was a pirate last time," Angela said. "If you're a bird, I think this time I'll be a fish."

It made sense to her.

Jake grinned. "You have an unfair advantage though."
