Overview
Small groups of actors plan scenarios that have concrete starting points and a conflict, obstacle, or problem the characters have to solve. At certain points, the teacher stops the scene and asks the audience to vote on the next thing that will happen or on a certain character's next response or action. The audience becomes a kind of writer’s room, in which actors are asked to try out different ideas as they perform.
