Summary
This is a classic improv warm-up. You all stand in a circle. One person kicks it off by saying 'zip' and pointing to someone else. That person says 'zap' and points to someone new. The next says 'zoop' and points again. The pattern keeps rolling, with 'zip,' 'zap,' and 'zoop' passing around the circle. Hesitate or say the wrong word, and you're out.
