In theatre, actors must transform space into new environments (places) that are believable to the audience, sometimes without the use of props or a set. Use this list of places to help students create the illusion of a new environment using their imaginations, movement, tableau, and ensemble.
This list is also a great resource when playing improv games that call for a location!
There are 66 regular places/environments on the first two pages and 30 special animal-themed places to use with a drama unit involving animals or with younger students. Also included are four activities to try right away.
Examples of places and environments:
- The mall
- Doctor’s office
- Public library
Examples of animal-themed places:
- Farm
- Animal shelter
- Veterinarian’s office
