I found the giver and taker nomenclature hard to keep straight.

I had a hard time remembering which is which until I started to mentally append “stage” to it. Stage giver, stage taker - taking the stage, giving the stage.

The author, given the context of improv, seems to have been implicitly using that as the metaphor the entire time but it didn’t stick to me until I thought about it more.
