A large die

Intro

This lively game is sure to bring fun and giggles to any afternoon. It’s an opportunity for people to express themselves creatively through singing, dancing, joke telling – or any kind of performance – in front of friends. It is certainly better suited to the more extrovert members of the group, but others may be keen to be brave and have a go.

So what are you waiting for? Let loose and unleash the actor within!

The Activity

Explain the activity first to make sure everyone is happy to join in
Put a numbered card in front of each person, making sure they can see it – this is their number for the whole game
Invite the first person to throw the die
Whoever’s number is called has to stand up (or sit if needed) and perform. Invite them to sing a few lines of a song, recite a poem, tell a joke, show off their dancing skills – or something else!
Encourage each person to be as creative as possible (there are no wrong answers or bad performances)
Keep going and rolling the die until everyone feels they have been as creative as they wish, or have had a few turns each
