Arguement and Conflict

As it turns out, improvisors in the KC area tend to have scenes full of conflict and arguments more than any other improv community. Why is that? I don't know.

Watching an argument on stage is like watching an argument on stage.
-John Robison (about a year ago)

In our Monday night class tonight, we struggled to avoid conflicts and arguments. As it turns out, I have an issue where, even if I'm trying to avoid an argument, I would be less than entusiastic for some reason...as John said it was The Glass Is 1/2 Empty mindset. In stead of "Yes...And"ing, I would "okay...fine...but..."
My goal for next week is to have a more possative/enthusiastic attitude.
