Rip Van Winkle Role Play

image: https://d1466nnw0ex81e.cloudfront.net/n_iv/600/852849.jpg

You and your group will prepare a improvised role play based on Rip Van Winkle.

Instructions:
One person in your group has just woken up from a coma. The rest of the group must SHOW that person the things that have changed in the world.

You may choose the length of the coma.
You may choose the year.
The person does not need to be Rip Van Winkle, he or she could play himself/herself.
It doesn't need to be realistic.

PLEASE:
SHOW or DESCRIBE how the person's physical appearance has changed.
SHOW or DESCRIBE how the world has changed. Maybe the person goes to meet the new president or see how a war has changed the landscape.
