Description

Four to six players play a scene. Then the audience chooses one of the players to get "voted off the island." The remaining players do the scene again, covering everything that happened the first time. Then another person gets voted out, and so on until one person has to act out the scene all by themselves.

There are various ways of re-playing the original scene, even when only one player left: player can do a monologue, can play all original characters herself, you name it ...

You can play this for an audience, but it`s also a great listening and paying-attention exercise.

Origin

The Improvoholics mailed us to claim they developed this game. Thanks guys!
