Today was a relatively short session of improvisation. We continued with the Theatre Sports. We played a game where everyone was assigned a certain number of words that they could say for each line. I got one. This proved difficult because it was hard to keep a conversation going. Not one of my best performances, as I had trouble thinking of how to advance the scene. However, the whole scene just kind of fell apart. The reason was that everyone was counting his or her words. This was what we concluded when we discussed it. The advice was to pretend that you are speaking the right amount of words. The main point is to advance the story.
