Playing the "Alliteration Introduction" Improv Icebreaker

Video Transcript

"Hi guys. We're here today learning how to do some improv icebreakers. The next icebreaker I'm going to teach you guys today is called "Alliteration Introduction." And to play Alliteration Introduction you're going to have all of your improviser?s mill about the room. They're also going to choose an alliterating way to introduce themselves. For example if your name is Ashley you may want to use a word that starts with "A" as in like Agile Ashley. So introduce yourself as Agile Ashley and also have some sort of action. If you choose Agile Ashley make sure you're doing something agile. Now my name is Matt so I'm going to start off with Magical Matt by taking my hat off and pulling a rabbit out of it. Once you've chosen what your action is you're going to introduce yourself to somebody else by saying "Hi, I'm Magical Matt", and then you're going to say their name, "Are you Dubious Dan?", at which point in time your partner is then going to say "Yes, I'm Dubious Dan, are you Magical Matt?" and you say "Yes." Once that interaction has taken place you move on and introduce yourself somebody else. So Dan and I are just going to go ahead and run one through around. I'm going to stick with Magical Matt first and we might mix a few things after this. Hi, I'm Magical Matt. Are you Dubious Dan? Well Hi Magical Matt, I am Dubious Dan. Nice to meet you. Then I'm going to mill about and pretend like I'm meeting somebody new and I'm going to give myself a new one too. Hi I'm Mischief Matt. Are you Danger Dan? Well Hi Mischief Matt, I am Danger Dan. You just keep milling around the room introducing yourself to new people and it's a fun way to remember everybody's name and you'll have a good time."
