On The Spot - Stage Fright Performance

Friday night saw us head out to catch up with Em's dance troupe from "On The Spot", she had missed too much this time around with our Ozzy holiday and all so she sat it out although she did most of the moves in the crowd. In addition to this entertainment, the "On The Spot" group danced, they had live music between acts which also included another individual singer and the main act was an improvisation competition with the assistance of a visiting dance troupe from New Caledonia.

Three teams made up of 4 or 5 members and they are given two words (sometimes from the crowd) and they have 1 minute to make up a 3 min play. Each round was one team against another then they would swap. It was very entertaining, three languages with lots of french accents even from the Tongans and some with no language at all which all added to the comedy of the night. Some of the subjects were '15 & babies', 'Tonga & aliens', buffalo & bicycle', 'newspaper & election' to name a few. The improvisation was fantastic and sometimes they included the crowd, we would then vote with our hands and made as much noise for our favourite team.

The live band, the girl was the main singer and she had the most amazing voice. As all Tongan seem to, must be all that singing in church.

Initially it was 4 babies on stage and they ran away so they stole 15 new babies from the kids in the crowd to replace them.
