Serves: 4

Cook Time: 5—10 min

Ingredients

8—10 Players
Example of ‘Ask For’: ‘Give me an object’

Instructions

4 Players line up
1 Player begins with an ‘Ask For’
Each player subsequently stops the scene and chest it with their own introduction
The 4th player to enter the scene must find a reason to leave the scene
After each player leaves the scene it reverts back to the previous moment
Players may not use dancing as a means of excusing themselves from the scene or beginning one.

Notes

This game begins with a group of 3 to 5 players; though 4 players is ideal. The first player begins the game by making an ‘Ask For’ be it an item, a situation or a profession. At any point the remaining players can call out ‘freeze’, the scene then stops and that player changes the scene to whatever the player(s) appears to look like they are doing. When the final player enters the scene is t is their job to change the location, position, or action of all other players and then find a justifiable reason to leave the scene. After a player leaves the scene all remaining players revert to previous scene but must now justify their new positions or movements. This is repeated until the original player is the only one left on stage.
