Scenes From A Hat, is an Acting Improv game.

Participants

  • Hat Barer (holds the hat and the cards)
  • Unlimited number of players

How does it work?

The Hat Barer pulls a scene from the hat and reads the scene out loud. The players can then step out of a crowd of people and act out the scene. When a joke that is so funny no one could possibly beat it is said, the Hat Barer may read out another scene.

Other comments

  • When first played at Lancaster 12.1, the Hat Barer forgot to bring the hat (he hadn't known Scenes From A Hat would be played that day): he had to recite scenes from his head.
  • So far, this has only been played at one session.

Jokes that originate from Scenes From A Hat

  • "Hi mom." (for scene "Bad things to say to your current girlfriend/boyfriend."
