Summary
"Questions Only" is a classic conversational improv game where you can only speak in questions. Make a statement, stumble, or miss the question, and you'll usually step out or head to the back of the line while someone takes your place. It often starts with a location suggested by the audience. And it's a wonderful first stop when you're introducing folks to conversational improv.
How to Play
- Gather the players, maybe in a line.
- Get a location suggestion from the audience.
- Start a scene or interaction.
- Every line of dialogue has to be a question.
- If someone makes a statement or stumbles, they head to the back of the line and another player steps in.
- Keep it going, with everyone asking questions only.
Required Materials
- You'll usually want an audience suggestion for a location.
Purpose
Variations
- It's similar to Song Titles, where dialogue is limited to song titles instead of questions.
- Can be played purely as an elimination game without replacements.
