New Structure- Games

I am completely excited about the new rehearsal structure when it comes to the RI Spectacular group! In the past... well I don't know how long... we don't really PRACTICE the games, we have just made sure everyone knows how to play them. With this new structure, We will have the time to actually practice and workshop games! I am SO happy about this. In the past, on occasion our games are stellar, but more often they have been just okay, and I think that the Roving Imps are capable of SO MUCH MORE!
I watched a show last night that played a game we play with a different spin. Tantrum made 'Let's make a Date' a game about character work and not about guessing. It was very fun and extremely entertaining to watch. By getting suggestions from the audience for the character quirks and naming them with the (formerly)'guesser' right there, it changes the tone and makes the game really more about which bachelor the contestant wants to date. By making the contestant an audience member, it eliminated the possibility of pre-planning or getting too-stale questions.
Yay improv!
