How it Works This is a very simple format, which consists of a number of (unrelated) scenes, that get interrupted, and then continues at a later point. It is played as follows: 2 or more players start a scene. At any time, when another player or players enters the stage, the scene is interrupted (or fades out) and the new player(s) start a new scene. This is repeated until all players have played. Then the series is restarted with the first scene. This scene continues, or starts at a later point in time (or later in the story, like a Fast Forward ). The scene gets interrupted again, and so forth. The whole is repeated several times. This is typically played without a director - the players decide when to interrupt an ongoing scene. Players typically play one character. | ||
