Drama Training
This exercise is also used for drama training. The script familiar to this editor was
A "I say number B"
B "Who, Sir(rah)? Me, Sir(rah)?"
A "Yes, Sir(rah). You, Sir(rah)!"
B "Oh, no, Sir(rah)! Not me, Sir(rah)!"
A "Who, then, Sir(rah)?"
The Sir/Sirrah distinction was used to demark relative status and the various participants were obliged to interpret their script by choosing an emotion selected from a wide range - confidence, arrogance, fear, offence, surprise, etc.

Famous quotes containing the words drama and/or training:
“My faith is the grand drama of my life. I’m a believer, so I sing words of God to those who have no faith. I give bird songs to those who dwell in cities and have never heard them, make rhythms for those who know only military marches or jazz, and paint colours for those who see none.”
—Olivier Messiaen (1908–1992)
“An educational method that shall have liberty as its basis must intervene to help the child to a conquest of liberty. That is to say, his training must be such as shall help him to diminish as much as possible the social bonds which limit his activity.”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)
