How to play
Choose five volunteers and send four away. Give the first volunteer a 20-second scenario to act out for the audience. Bring back the second volunteer to watch, then they perform it for the third, and so on. The final volunteer tells the audience what they think the scenario was. Be prepared for something completely different from the original!
