Version 3 (von improwiki, 28.12.2017 15:40)
A performance gives the group the opportunity to implement the experience of the exercises in front of an audience.
Beginners
Generally speaking, a group should occur as soon as possible after the most important basics (Status,Accept,...) are known. Just this takes the Stage fright early and lowers Failures. For this purpose, the audience consisting of friends and relatives should be invited to a Showcase. These are generally benevolent towards the players and not as critical as guests, especially if they have been asked to enter.
Principles
The schedule of the evening should always be determined beforehand. For beginners, it may also be useful to specify who plays which games (see also Program).
At the beginning of the performance, the Audience should be warmed up by the Moderator Warming up the audience.

A performance should last at least 30 minutes, because including warming up of the audience this time is needed to present the minimum number of 3 games.
For performances with a break this should take place after 3/4 hour (as a rule of thumb).
The intermission can be used to prepare the Game. Without a break, the maximum duration of 1 hour should not be exceeded, because after this time the attention of the audience decreases.
