Rewind and Unblock<\/h1>\n

This is a helpful exercise for teachers wanting to side coach scenes when improvisers aren’t yet used to that, as it gives a context where the helpful nudge from the teacher isn’t unexpected and doesn’t feel like a criticism (which it’s not).<\/p>\n

The exercise can then be used to help improvisers to unblock their scene and find agreement and notice offers that have been left behind.<\/p>\n

Two people do an improvised scene from suggestion but before it starts the teacher says something along the lines of:<\/p>\n

“This is an exercise called rewind. You are going to improvise a scene but every now and then I’ll say rewind to and we’ll rewind to a certain line and explore different ways we could support that line. It will help us find things that have been blocked or missed. There will be quite a few rewinds early on as we work out the game.”<\/p>\n

The teacher will then be aiming to help people unblock and discover how many offers there are on stage to support and how much potential in every scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9081,"template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-25706","resource","type-resource","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nRewind and Unblock | Hoopla<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/resource\/rewind-and-unblock\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Rewind and Unblock | Hoopla\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Rewind and Unblock This is a helpful exercise for teachers wanting to side coach scenes when improvisers aren’t yet used to that, as it gives a context where the helpful nudge from the teacher isn’t unexpected and doesn’t feel like a criticism (which it’s not).
