Where are we?

This is a Game. It is in the following categories:

• Performance

• SingSong

Balladeer

How it Works

One player is the balladeer, who starts singing a ballad about an audience suggestion. The other players actually play what the balladeer sings about, in slow motion.

This is actually group story-building, as the players are inspired by the what the balladeer sings (obviously) but also, their actions can/should inspire the balladeer.

Notes

You're not limited to ballads, of course. The same Handle can be used for a Long Form structure: see Balladeer(2) .
