*Watch a presenter take us through their fabulous holiday of silly slides.*

## Setup and Format

* 1 presenter
* 2-10 tableau-ers

The presenter takes front-centre stage, with their back to the tableau-ers. The presenter gets a prompt of something that might involve a series of pictures presented in a slide show (e.g. vacation, project plans, etc.).

The presenter begins by introducing themselves and starts talking about their subject, with some general context as to what the next slide is (e.g. the first thing I saw in Guatemala astounded me...). Meanwhile, the tableau-ers silently arrange themselves into a physical tableau, each person taking a position as though they were captured in a photo. The presenter then turns to the tableau and explains what we are seeing, and why we're seeing it. Notably, how it makes sense in the context of their talk.

After this, the presenter turns back to the audience, leading to the next slide. The tableau-ers again silently rearrange to a new position. Repeat until scene end.

Both sides should try to 'yes and' each other: use what the presenter is saying and the general story to inform the position. And similarly, use the physical tableau to alter the story's direction.

## Learning Outcomes

Slideshow is perfect for players who just want to find their feet on stage. All it is, is players on the back line creating pictures or tableaus of holiday photos that two players in the front have to justify. Essentially it’s like someone showing you their holiday snaps. Except the ones presenting have no idea what the back line will do. And vice versa. Both have to justify the offers each other make. So there are 3 or 4 players are on the back line and it’s their task to just make tableaus that look like holiday photographs. Then two players at the front of the stage have to make sense of that tableau in relation to their fictional holiday. They can ‘click’ to a new photo by simple coming together on stage and pretending to use a slideshow clicker to move the image to the next one.

It’s tons of fun and really good for people who want to get up but not necessarily do much talking. And those presenting get a real fun time making sense of their team mates offers, and then creating scenarios right back at them to create.
