Improvise the whole of The Comedy of Errors in under<br />
five minutes. In small groups, one student narrates the<br />
story while the remaining students perform the<br />
scenes...<br />
Like the game ‘Typewriter’, students may<br />
improvise with or without dialogue, while<br />
predominately being guided by the narrator.<br />
The group could perform one of the statements from<br />
‘Fold 1’ as a means to communicate a moral message<br />
Improvise a ‘new’ <strong>Shakespeare</strong>an scene for a comedy,<br />
based on the established conventions of his comedies...<br />
.<br />
You could improvise a scene between...<br />
-Two jesters meeting in a war<br />
- Disguised twins fooling each other<br />
- Two families lost in a supermarket
