Class Wednesday, January 17th

Great class. Most of the class posts will probably start like that. I love class; it's always fun and the people I get to play with are so talented. This group is really satisfying. Lots of different types, and a tremendous level of skill.

In fact, the thing I am struggling with the most right now is being intimidated by the more advanced players. It's not entirely rational, as I'm perfectly capable of keeping up.

I've never been a huge initiator on the improv stage, anyway. I let the cleverer folks do most of that, especially verbally. I'm much more comfortable wallowing in the movement aspect and hoping what I do inspires others. But I'm even more likely right now to wait through that moment of "Something Need To Happen" and let it die, or someone else make the play so late that we'll probably lose the audience.

Anyway, I resolve to be ballsier at the next class. More balls, less fear.

Finally Writing It Down

So, I'm doing this blogging thing, and John keeps saying to write stuff down, journal, etc., so I am. And I made a nice separate blog to do it in. I'll do my best to keep up with it, and see how it affects my play.
