Game Talk
Class Description:
We will do 2 person scenes and the teacher will identify the game. As we go, we'll discuss "unusual thing" and "framing" and "justification" as well as "heighten and explore." There's a chance this will devolve into discussion sometimes so be ready for fewer scenes then we might be used to.
Goal: Get rid of lots of the "shoulds" and how you only need: base reality, an actual unusual thing, and playing it emotionally real.
