A week ago, on Saturday, we had our first show in the Student Union at The University of Kansas. I was only in the audience for that performance.

Lessons From The Masters, Volume 2.5: TJ Jagodowski
“I recently had my first opportunity to study with TJ Jagodowski. Kinda like getting batting advice from Babe Ruth. His main lesson involved the Heat & Weight of a scene. We started with the ...”
OK OK OK, John noticed that the first three games of that show all had low energy, so we focused on levels of energy last Sunday in workshop. While we had no workshop today, we had a wonderful show at the Underground Clubhouse.
Later, I had fun in the middle set.One of the short-form games played last night was Hitchhiker, where four chairs are arranged in two rows of two, as seats in a motor vehicle. A player volunteers to be the driver, and is sent outside the room, so he or she can not hear or see suggestions for the other five players and thus must guess.
Frank was a feather boa as portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger, and John was the entire cast of Cheers, both of which gave some trouble to Trevor, our driver.
Shannon received the suggestion “a dinosaur ... with flatulence” and he played a velociraptor with much aplomb and many raspberries.
This was a long-form, and we received “blue” as a suggestion.
Frank and Justin chatted on stage, and Justin said, “I could die at any time,” so I ran on stage yelling a battle cry, wielding a spear, and mimed my stabbing his character.
Justin appeared whole in the office of John as a doctor.
We had at least three more scenes where people were stabbed by a “roving barbarian.”
Yes, every player was awesome last night.
