Improv Class, The Boards, Thursday Evening
Well, here it was. The last improv class at the Boards for the semester. Possibly clean through the summer into fall, Jonothon wasn't completely sure what his summer was going to look like, after all. He already knew he wasn't going to have time to teach at the school for at least a few months.
War was kind of funny like that.
"A game that's near and dear to my own heart," he announced once it looked as though everyone who was going to show up... had, "makes everyone on the stage think on their toes a little differently than they otherwise might. It's called 'Sung Story Die,' and it's more or less what it sounds like. You're now performers in a musical, but you haven't been given lyrics. You do, however, know what the musical is about, and what the style of music is, so, now that you're onstage on opening night, you really have to wing it, somewhat."
This wasn't a callback to Being Frank, why?
"Grab a partner, get up on the stage, get a subject to sing about, and get to it. But keep it to the rhythm, and if you trip up on your lyrics, you're out."
Meow was not an acceptable substitute when drawing a blank. But it would probably get a good laugh.

He was hungry today, and this is the last class. What?
The Stage!
Talk to the Instructors!
Re: Talk to the Instructors!
In any case, he had his acoustic guitar on standby, in case people wanted accompaniment to sing to or something. And, really, it wasn't so much 'standby' as he was quietly playing it whenever people weren't on the stage.
OOC!
