A Short Improv Scene

Video Transcript

"JANE ENTWISTLE: Hi, I'm Jane Entwistle with Expert Village.Com. ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: Hi and I'm Andrew Stubblefield. Welcome back. JANE ENTWISTLE: So we've taught you some of the great basic rules and structures of improv, 'yes-and', no questions, communicating, give and take, 'who, who, where, what', all of the things that you need to incorporate to make a great scene. And we're going to incorporate all of those things now to show you what strong scene can look like. So it's going to be Andrew and I, and I'm just going to start a scene. Are you ready, Andrew? ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: I am. JANE ENTWISTLE: Okay. ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: Uh, Good morning, mom! Whoo, those waffles smell good. JANE ENTWISTLE: Oh, hi Billy. It's a special surprise for your father. I'm really excited. ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: Wow, he finally got that promotion. That's awesome! JANE ENTWISTLE: Yes and that means we can go on holiday this summer. ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: Aw, I hope the holiday is to Disneyland, that's my favorite place in the whole world! JANE ENTWISTLE: Yes and you know what that means? Grandma's going to be able to come too! ANDREW STUBBLEFIELD: I haven't seen Grandma since I was two. Wow, it would be great seeing her again. And you could see that that's a basic scene incorporating a lot of the things that we've learned. Give and take, we both went back and forth, the yes and-ing. We really built on each other's suggestions, and the space work. She was making waffles. I was turning on ovens, kind of creating that kitchen."
