Where are we? | Description | ||
This is a Game. It is in the following categories:
|
How it Works Have everyone walk around leisurely. Tel them to stop and start make a movement, a gesture, a sound, anything really. Let the players repeat the gesture until they know what they 'are'. The idea is not to preconceive, but to let it happen. Players may turn out to be dish washers, ushers, lawn mowers, ping pong balls, whatever. Explain that there are no wrong answers. Tell the players just to acknowledge what they 'are' for themselves, and then move on, stop again and make another gesture/movement/sound. | ||
