Performance Scores

BODY BEAT
Clasp your hands tightly together, fingers interlaced. Hold very still ike this until you can feel your pulse through your fingers. Count out 40 beats of your pulse and release.

YUM LOVE
On a saltine cracker with a non-toxic marker (color of your choosing) write the name of someone in your life who you know supports you. Eat the cracker. Lick lips afterward.


SUMMER MEADOW PORTRAIT
Pick a handful of yellow dandelions. While pinching the base of the flower, use them to paint on a white sheet of paper. Optional: spray glue over the paper after to keep the bits and petals of flower that have been left behind on the paper. Nice texture.

ANTI-CATCH
Can be performed with two or more participants. One participant throws a lightweight ball (i.e. beach ball, volleyball, dodge ball) to another participant. This second participant does not catch the ball, but waits until it has come to a rest on the ground before picking it up and throwing it to someone else (either the first participant again, or another participant). This next person, again, will not pick up the ball until it has come to a rest. Continue until everyone has thrown the ball at least once.

SLIP AND FIVE
Two performers wear soft wool socks and run towards each other on a hardwood surface. As they approach each other, they should skid to a stop, sliding past each other. High fives should be exchanged as they pass.

PRISON BREAK
A long sleeve shirt and pants should be worn for this performance. A performer stands, arms extended against a wall while others apply many pieces of masking tape, no longer than 6 inches each to this performer - one end of a piece of tape stuck to the performer's clothing, and the other end stuck to the wall. Once the performer is taped to the wall, he or she breaks free, pulling their arms, legs, and body off the wall while yelling in triumph.
