Improv Games
Improv Games#1
Posted: 4/17/07 at 5:30pm
In one of my classes at school, we do improv occasionally and I came up with a few games to play. Here's what I have:
Song Titles (you can only speak in, yes, song titles.)
Questions Only (same except you speak in questions)
Party Quirks (the one where someone host the party while 3 other people pretend to be things and the host guesses what they are)
Whose Line (people act out a scene and the audience writes lines for them to throw in during the scene)
Can you think of any others? They need to be appropriate for a high school class.

Script Game: Two actors perform a scene. But one actor has a play in his hand and everything he says must come from the script.
Two times Two: Two actors perform a scene. But each actor has two lines (written on pieces of paper) that they must pull out of their pocket at different times during the scene and say.
Human Props: Two actors perform a scene with two other actors acting as their props.
Typewriter: An actor writes a story with other actors acting it out. You can erase and rewrite if necessary (if an actor or the typist does something the typist wishes to change).
Ding: Two to four actors perform a scene. There is one diner. the dinger says ding whenever s/he wants the last person who spoke to change what they said. Example:
Man: Where is the bathroom?
Ding
Man:Where is the macaroni?
Ding
Man: Where is Meryl Streep?
The opposite of creation isn't war, it's stagnation.
