improvising

Its the end of the week and after tumbling Luke's back is sore and we decide not to train. Instead we go to Auspicious. We sit in the warm and drink tea and eat too many jelly-frogs. We make a list of all the moves we would like to try on and over and through the bunkbeds and the table. We type and type and our list gets longer and longer. At the end of it we look at it and say "if we have a tenth of these the show will have cool tricks." We watch some of the footage from monday. The long improvisations, pulling out moments that we liked:
Laying out a map on the floor using the newspapers.
The dog-head girl saying everything she knows about dogs
The newspaper boy dance
The boat with the newspaper boy in the back
There were more. I forget...
