homework

[thehefner]

Kate, my teacher at Studio Theatre, called me up to give me my first homework assignment for the first class next week. My assignment is a 3 minute pantomime, with a distinctive beginning, middle, and end, focusing on one of the five senses."

It was exactly exercises like this that kept me far, far away from such classes for so many years. Now I am receptive and open-minded (well, more so anyway) and very willing to do this. I just still don't have the faintest bloody idea what to do or where to begin even thinking of such a thing.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Still haven't heard back from Gary regarding Grad School.

The teacher? Yes. In his defense, what he asked the student to repeat did not require TMI or aquick any of us, and the student chose the act of showering (not the teacher). S just required him/all of us to focus on the details of what we were doing.

Please don't get me wrong. This exercise - and the class - were rather enjoyable and educational (until we reached the scenes and S decided that I was Harry Potter/not worth his time to instruct in any way).

All the more reason I'm glad I have Kate as my teacher, then.
