Wednesdays with Kirsten: Look ‘em Straight in the Eyes
Hello Wednesday Blog Readers. I am in between cities right now, currently in Toronto and heading to Regina. So this one will be short and sweet.
When your scene partner enters the room… look them in the eyes. When there is a big revelation on stage… look them in the eyes. To know whether or not the scene has found it’s feet, or lost it’s feet, is about to climax… or about to end… , (all together now) Look Your Scene Partner in the eyes.
It’s amazing what actual contact can do for your improv acting.
Now don’t spend the whole scene staring into their baby blues, or nutmeg brownies. Please get back to your tasking and working with your environment, looking out the window at the sunset and combing the dog.
But when needed (and it always is) to find the story, push the story, raise the steaks, make a declaration….. then….. LOOK YOUR PARTNER IN THE EYES!
Oh yeah! Peeps got pretty peeps… so take a peek at ‘em.
Happy Wednesday,
Kirsten
