3 Games That Every Theatre School Swears By!

1/10/2019

 
Picture
Theatre Games offers exercises & activities that can be enjoyed by broad range of ages & abilities.​At Perform Australia, we practice these high-energy & fun-filled games to encourage clarity of thought, remain calm under pressure & connect  emotionally & physically to the spoken world. These activities act as a warm-up to train  performers to get ready to unleash their imagination & performance.
Students of Perform Australia
1. 1-10
A simple yet effective exercise to bring everyone's focus at the beginning of every session. 
The group stands in a circle and is asked to call out one number at a time. Sounds easy? Well, if two players call out a number at the same time, the exercise is stopped and needs to start over.

2. Spaghetti
A fun-filled, physical activity that helps performers to connect their emotions with their character. It easily creates a drama lesson plan that will  inspire each performing arts student.
The group forms a circle and each player gets a  chance to play an emotion by coming in the center. The group gives the chosen player a specific emotion, that needs to be played by saying the word 'Spaghetti'.

Emotion/character-traits are as such:
Excited-spaghetti, Intelligent spaghetti, rock star spaghetti, cool spaghetti

3. Wink Murder
This activity focuses on promoting concentration and group awareness of all the performers.
The group sits in a circle facing each other and a volunteer is asked to become a detective. This selected detective is then asked to step outside the circle. Meanwhile, the group chooses a murderer from the group that the detective is unaware of. The task for the murderer is to kill the other players (victims), while the detective finds who the villain is.
