Anyway, I set up an Imaginative Obstacle Course on stage. This is an exercise I used once as my audition for two productions of Peter Pan that I directed with younger teens in Washington (see plan for details).The kids really seemed to enjoy it, but it took nearly the whole period to get everyone of them through it, mostly because of all of the regular nonsense from all of the regular people. Positive standouts from this exercise were: Esteban, Shawn, Carter, Jessalie, Travione, & George.
Obstacle Course:
Run across - stop midway - Stream stone hop - Target shoot (did you hit it?) - Broad jump across the moat - Raise the flag - Slo Mo finish line

Moving on, here are the groups I've made. There are three larger home groups for games (these could also be used for the multi-scene mini productions you were talking about, or they could be broken down further for that).
I've also made smaller improv-composition scene groups, which I had hoped to use on Friday, but was not able to get to due to lack of time. Check these out and let me know what you think.
Home Groups:
Red Group Purple Group Blue Group
