Play touches and stimulates vitality, awakening the whole person - mind, body, intelligence and creativity, spontaneity and intuition. - Viola Spolin

The most significant change in the games themselves is the addition of 'Follow the Follower' (p 62), a variation on the 'Mirror' game in which no one initiates and all reflect. This game quiets the mind and frees players to enter a time, space, a moment intertwined with one another in a non-physical, non-verbal, non-analytical, nonjudgmental way.

The theater workshop can become a place where teachers and students meet as fellow players, involved with one another, ready to connect, to communicate, to experience, to respond, and to experiment and discover.

Don't initiate! Follow the initiator! Follow the follower.
