PLANT, TUNE, DON'T TALK

PURPOSE

To practice connecting to an audience, free from concerns about speaking.

OVERVIEW

Participants take turns stepping forward and silently remaining connected to the audience.

TEXT

None!

Plant, Tune, Don't Talk

The directions to this game are visual.

(Step into the speaking spot and Plant.

Tune.

Continue tuning for a LONG time . . .

Finally, power pause and step back.)

That’s called Plant, Tune, Don’t Talk.

We figure,

if you can learn to feel comfortable

standing in front of an audience,

not talking . . .

then talking itself

might start to feel easy.

Pausing might feel easier too.

(Pause.)

Right?

Anyone want to try?
