AYE ye scurvy pirates! I had a couple really fun scenes in improv tonigh
I also had an incredibly crappy scene where where the audience gives us a task, gives each of us an emotion and then we have to switch emotions back and forth while the scene is taking place. It went really badly and I’m still not sure if I can give any of the blame to my partner, but I don’t think so! I started with possessiveness, and all I kept doing was narrating my emotion. It was really bad. We were making pizza. “It’s MY pizza!” “That is MY dough!” It was so horrible.
His emotion was egotistical and we switched a couple times. “I am the best pizza maker!” I couldn’t think of anything else to say! Then he forgot which emotion to switch to and switched to “pushy.” He started ordering me around and I just looked at him really confused. I couldn’t remember where he’d started from so I didn’t know if I should say something egotistical or possessive. I have rarely had a scene fall so FLAT.
