Group writing

I know there's an improve exercise where the group is given a topic, and everyone on stage takes a sentence from the last person to speak, elaborating on the theme.

Maybe we should do that, start a paragraph, and just add to it when we have time. Paragraphs can be long or short, snippets of dialog, etc. But they have to flow from the last one, and can drastically change the meaning of the work.

What do we think? Is this a workable idea? If we get buyin from the members of the tribe, I'll post the first topic and paragraph, and I'll try not to make it too weird. :-)

Maybe something like a kidnapping setup, or a mystery.
