Do or DIĀ® Challenge
Educational Focus: Improvisational acting, story development, teamwork, research skills
The Destination:
Where This Challenge Will Take You!
Going Going Gone? A Threatened Thing is in danger of extinction, and YOU are its only hope for survival! With a Stock Character and an Unimpressive Superpower, can you save the Great Barrier Reef, the Giant Panda, or even landline telephones? But wait...do all threatened things need to be saved or is it better if some go the way of the dinosaur? You decide to Do or DI!
Points of Interest! Your team will:
Create a five-minute Improvisational Skit about a Threatened Thing in danger of extinction. This must be done in a seven-minute Preparation Time period at the Tournament.
Present a Skit using a Stock Character randomly selected from a list of stock characters that the team has previously researched.
Incorporate props and/or scenery to enhance the Skit.
Integrate a randomly selected Unimpressive Superpower that is revealed during the Skit.
