We are making a thing. We are using Declan Hill as a jumping off point. You guys got any ideas?

Well, after I read the wikipedia article on Declan Hill, I went to the linked article about match-fixing. What jumped out at me in that article were the ways that coaches substitute certain players to sort of build a losing team, by "having one or more key players sit out, often using minimal or phantom injuries as a public excuse for doing this".
What if we did something involving the performers frequently stopping in the middle of their movements and sitting on the sidelines, maybe citing made-up injuries? Kind of turn the dance into swiss cheese. Comments?
"What if we did something involving the performers frequently stopping in the middle of their movements and sitting on the sidelines"
I dig this. For the movement, I would like it if we actually played a game, instead of dance-improv. We could even do a version of 'follow the leader' where each person would lead, and then everyone else tried to 'one-up' the leader. and then when someone successfully one-ups the leader, someone pulls them out of 'the game' and they start slow-jamming to tracks off mariah carey's "emancipation of miami" album, while 'the game' continues without them.
