How to Play People Watching

This is best explained by an example involving players A, B, and C.

  • A waits for B and C to leave before asking for a suggestion. A asks for something like, « Whenever B takes a step forward, what will I do? » The audience supplies an answer like, « Yodel. »
  • Then A leaves, and B returns to ask something like, « Whenever C says a word starting with W, what will I do? » The audience supplies an answer like, « Run in a circle. »
  • Now C returns as B leaves again and asks something like, « Whenever A touches me, what will I do? » The audience supplies an answer like, « Bark like a dog. »
  • Everyone returns and performs a straight scene. A watches B who watches C who watches A, and anytime the appropriate action is performed, they react accordingly.
