Rehearsal Week 1

The students explored what it was like to exchange a story about a "miracle" to another person and then take on the story that they had just heard as if it was there own and tell it to someone new. Then we told that new story through another perspective. Sometimes this was from the point of view of the dog or the brother or the window in a story. Then they got into groups of 4 or 5 and performed one of these stories without words. They could do these in any space and had to included an entrance, exit, three difference levels, slow motion, 10 seconds of stillness, and a title. It's amazing what kind of creativity can happen within those limitations given 10 minutes to work! Here are some images from what they came up with:

"The Ice Breaker"

 "What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger"
