Applause: yes. Discussion or feedback: no.
Before you perform: Read it aloud once, quietly — then cut it down until it fits.
The evening:
- Order is drawn from a hat; the host announces your object, not you.
- A short break after every 5 texts.
- Afterwards, you can stick your text into your field book.
