How it Works

Ask 2 players to play a short scene. One could limit the scene to 8 lines of dialog per player. Then ask the players to replay the scene, based on some audience suggestions for:

  • a particular emotion. Also known as Emotion Replay.

  • an era. Also known as Through the Ages. Also known as Historical Replay.

  • a different location

  • a film / TV / literature style. Also known as Style Replay.

  • in Gibberish

  • backwards. Also known as Backwards Scene.

Variations

You can time the scene to 1 minute, and then replay in 30 seconds, 15 seconds, 7 seconds and 3 seconds. Other variations:

  • have the scene replayed by 2 other players

  • insist that the dialog remains exactly the same
