In pairs, create 30 second scenes with only these 4 words.

In small groups one person is introduced and their hypeman hypes them up

Group game that plays with the tension between following your desires vs. running away from your fears. 

2 players improvise a scene, and make distinct strong physical and vocal choices.

Then the roles are reversed, and each player plays the other's character, in the same scene, same location.

One person sculpts 2 people in relationship. Sculpted people shift their relationship to each other. 

players build out a character's experience based on a single feeling

Characters created by questions from other players
Each character created one at a time, then scenes are played

in a circle, a player starts by miming something, saying what it is, and giving it to someone else in the circle.  Whoever receives it creates a point of view (POV) from the object.
