Scenes From A Hat, is an Acting Improv game.
Contents
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. The Jester lost the scenes that were going to be used for 13.1.
Jokes that originate from Scenes From A Hat
- "Hi mom." (for scene "Bad things to say to your current girlfriend/boyfriend."...unless someone already did that joke. You never can tell when you don't show up to these things on certain occasions.)
