improv theater

Dressing up and acting out DM issues - making them shocking or funny - will definitely get attention. And it’s fun!

Tips for Success:

  • Create a short skit (2 or 3 minutes) about an issue students care about.

  • Act it out where students gather (outside dining hall, library etc.)

  • Make it simple to get your points across

  • Make props - signs, banners, simple costumes, noise-makers etc. to get attention and draw a crowd. etc.

  • Ask students and/or faculty in your drama department to help out.

  • Hand out information on the issue and on DM (meetings and contacts).

  • Examples:

    • -Use the DM banner as a SuperHero Cape and rush in to solve a problem (dramatize climate change, gun violence, the high cost of college etc.

    • Dress up as billionaires ignoring the problems of students and/or ordinary citizens. The hero raises taxes on the wealthy!
