NEXT, take 1 exchange from your script and rewrite it by having character #2 sidestep by commenting on something else.
Do it again, this time, have character #2 sidestep with a question.
Do it again…this time, have character #2 sidestep with silence…and have character #1 respond.
Do it again…this time, have character #2 sidestep with an action…and have character #1 respond.
With an assigned partner, create a GOOGLE DOC and with BOTH NAMES at the top, write 2 short, 1-sided scripts…use this website for a topic…http://www.thestorystarter.com/jr.htm
