You may think that Tempo Rhythm is solely for the actor using it but we have found that if you want to be a convincing actor you need to respond to others. For example your tempo rhythm will increase if someone tells you some exciting news and they are excited also. They are influencing you and your tempo rhythm.
Here are two exercises that demonstrate this.
First exercise:
One person will be taken out of the group and given a scenario and tempo rhythm. The rest of the group will not know anything apart from where they are.
For the group: You are at a school.
Second exercise:
All of the group will be given a scenario and tempo rhythm apart from one person who will be asked to come in after the group has been filled in.
For the one person: You are at an Airport.
