Black Box

How it Works

This one is played by 2 players. One holds a (mimed) black box, which has 3 buttons, one of which is red. These buttons control a player; one button might be the 'jerk your leg' button. The exact functions of each button are not defined.

The other player enters and asks if he can play with the box. Player 1 agrees, but adds something like "Whatever you do, don't push the red button".

Player 2 begins to play with the buttons, controlling player 2. Then, we slowly work up to the use of the dreaded red button, which will make player 2 do something not-so-obvious. This can be anything, but it should not be preconceived. The red button might become a Mood swing button, a Start Screaming, Start Giggling, Sing Opera, or Switch-to- Gibberish button.
