Thunder Clown - Six Ring Show 04/01 - No Foolin'
While the team felt generally icky about their set, this was, over all, a great milestone in their work.
They took some wonderful chances this week, and made moves that they would never have attempted as recently as three weeks ago.
- Suggestion: Fish
- Goal: PCP
- Playfulness
- Continuity
- Patience
- Five Scenes, One Transformation Game
Over all, their scenes were slower and they used edits to lengthen and explore. They started with personal initiations that allowed them to have character points of view later in the set when the characters were called back.
They took chances with tag outs and scene painting, and are proving that their timing instincts are definitely maturing, getting into and out of a scene when it was needed, even if the initiation needed some work.
I can tell that they are questioning being in the ensemble and that they don't know if I've got them pointed in the right direction. They are uncomfortable because they are in new territory and there is an underlying fear. They are now ready to be put back together.
I just hope that they trust me long enough to do it.
