How it Works

Let the players walk around the room in silence. Ask them how they would classify themselves:

  • high or low Status

  • loud or silent

  • caring or careless

  • strong or weak

  • tall or small

  • secure or insecure

  • clumsy or perfect

  • happy or sad

  • introvert or extravert

  • basically anything that would be a character trait

Then ask them to imagine they are exactly the opposite of all these character traits. Ask them to move about like such a character. Then play scenes in which the players 'become' the opposites of their own characters.
