This combination of theatre games and ideas for drama from Drama Menu gave my performing arts students a fantastic hour and a half of creative fun and made for a very positive experience for all! On top of the exercises above, I also used drama game 28 – ’10 Seconds To Make’ and drama game 50 – ‘Group Hug’, I played these between Yes, Lets and ‘Challenge…’. The students loved the ‘Challenge…’ game so much that we ended up playing it three times with different players being challenged and the students being encouraged to make more and more challenging suggestions – highly recommended! Channel Hopping was the perfect drama exercise for students who have a great deal of energy as it channelled their energy in quick fire bursts and the threat of the zapper really made them give their all to get through the presentation without being zapped! All in all, I would highly recommend this theatre game combination if you have an energised group who need a fast moving and fun outlet for their energy and talent.
