Summary
One Mouth is an improv game where several performers answer questions by speaking all at the same time. You might sit in a line or stand in a staggered group facing the audience. You're handed a suggestion for an unusual topic of expertise or a recent accomplishment. The Director or facilitator can take questions from the audience or run it like an interview. The real challenge: everyone speaks at once, trying to land as one clear, single voice. That takes serious listening and coordination.
How to Play
- Arrange yourselves, maybe a seated line or a staggered group.
- Grab a suggestion for a topic of expertise or an accomplishment.
- The Director or facilitator takes questions, from the audience or staged.
- All of you answer at the same time, aiming to sound like one voice.
Required Materials
- Nothing required, beyond suggestions for expertise or an accomplishment, and maybe some audience questions. Performers just need to be where the audience can see them, like a seated line or a staggered group.
Purpose
Variations
- Similar to Dr. Know-It-All, but with simultaneous speech.
