 +**Building trust** - On Saturday 
 + 
 +Hallo Rice Grains,  
 + 
 +To spontaneously create a scene out of thin air, on stage in front of a live audience, we have to trust our fellow actors to make them look good. **Trust is the invisible thread that ties teams together.** As we know from our personal relationships, trust isn’t something that can be forced. Even if you want to trust someone, your history with that person, or even your own background, can keep you from sharing openly. We will begin with improv games designed to get us **thinking collaboratively while practising trust** with each other. Then we will focuss on **listening and accepting**. At the end it will be **showtime** and we will put all our trust in practice. 
 + 
 +**Beginners** and experienced players are more than welcome! 
 + 
 +We will meet this Saturday at 15:00 near the bridge at the Englisch Garten: 
 + 
 +FIXME Google Maps link to location 
 + 
 +Due to the Corona regulations, we will have a maximum of 20 participants and **we need to log who comes.** Reserve your place here: 
 + 
 +FIXME Link to meetup 
 + 
 +Because we are going to get into the moment while playing the first games, **please be on time. If you have flu or cold symptoms during the 3 days before, we will be thankful if you stay at home. Next Saturday and Tuesday there will be improv again!** 
 + 
 +Looking forward to have fun with you! 
 + 
 +Lucho

 +   * **Seaweed**: Divide the players in trios. One is a seaweed, closes his/her eyes and moves as a reaction to the touchs of the other two players. The seaweed must not move her/his feets. 10 minutes.
 +   * **Cloud game**: Continuation of the seaweed game. Ask for 3 volunteers. They will be clouds which move around the room as a reaction of the touches of other players. Because their eyes are closed, the group takes care for the safety of the "clouds". After a while, 5 volunteers become clouds. Duration: 20 minutes
    * **Movement expert**: One player ask to the other one if he can do ... movements? (matemathical, national, shot, selbst-understanble, early, fresh, old, ununderstandable). The other one answer "Yes" and does it until the second one says "Thanks"    * **Movement expert**: One player ask to the other one if he can do ... movements?

 +===== Using touching as inspiration =====
 +Establish the boundaries of the group before playing these games.
 +  * **Scene with a ghost**: Two players establish CROW on a scene. Afterwards a third player behind them touches them once in a while. They have to use that as an input for adding new elements to the scene. For example, a touch on the feet can make one player find something on the floor.
 +  * **Scene with players touching each other**: Two players establish CROW on a scene. After a while, they may touch the shoulder of the other player and use that to add elements to the scene.
 +    * At the end share ways how touch affects your character
