Welcome to another Tuesday’s Challenge in which I give you a topic for a 2-minute video.
This month, the theme is performance, and next month the theme is the craft of comedy, so let’s combine the 2!
In fact, this will give you great raw material for another workshop we do, called Act-outs and dialogue.
Acting out a conversation is a great opportunity to bring your listeners into your story and help them recreate the scene... in their minds.
That’s why radio is called theatre of the mind. And for most people, nothing gives you more raw material to work with than, things your mom says, or said if she’s no longer with us.
My mother passed away in 2012, but in my family, we still laugh about the things she said. Things that became part of her identity. Things we remember her by. Things we will carry with us forever.
J’ai mal au ceour.
I have a stomach ache, which she’d usually say about half an hour after she said, oh, j’ai trop mange. Or when she didn’t want to sit in the back seat of the car.
My mother had a personality the size of a football field, and she wasn’t the most tactful person in the world. In fact, she could be a bit blunt. And after every blunt comment she’d say, ‘You wouldn’t want me to be anything less than honest?’
And when we had a disagreement about anything, she’s wait an hour or a day, and return to the conversation with, ‘I thought about it, and you’re wrong’.
So that’s 3 things my mother used to say, and they still make us laugh.
So what’s a phrase your mother says, or said? Extra points if you put on her accent!
