B. The rest of the group, actors, will take on roles, whether of living or non-living things. But there

or one human and the rest are either animals, plants, or inanimate objects.
C. No member is needed to represent the hazard.
D. The actors must represent what is happening to the living and/or non-living things caught in the
given situation. The assumption is that they are unable to avoid the situation.
