How to Play Scene mix 10x20

The aim of this exercise is to make it very clear in a very short time what a scene is all about. It trains the making of strong offers.

10 scenes with 2 players are played shortly after each other. Each of the 10 scenes lasts only 20 seconds (or another length chosen by the instructor: 10s, 30s, 1min...). The instructor stops the time and after 20 seconds two new players jump onto the stage and start a new scene.

As the players don't have much time, you may feel confident enough to do more and risk more in the scene, making offers and reactions to offers great.

Variations

  • After all 10 scenes have been played through, the instructor can select a few scenes from these (for example, the last two scenes played) and let the players continue playing them (e. g. for 1 minute) at the point where they ended before. After 1 minute you can switch to the next scene.

  • In order to give further assistance, the scenes can always be stopped after a fixed time (e. g. after 1 minute) and then briefly recapitulated what has actually happened in the scene so far and what possibilities there are to continue playing this scene.
