MURDER:
Three (or more) actors can play this popular performance game at a time. The success of this game is directly tied to the performer's focus and sense of "giving" details.
Three performers will step forward to play, and two of them will leave the theater immediately. The audience will then suggest a Place, Occupation, and Weapon (POW) for the remaining performer. He/she (the first actor) must act out each element to one of the other two actors using only body language and gibberish. The second actor, upon figuring out the murder weapon, must then "kill" the first actor with the object. Enter the third actor, and the process repeats again.
After the third or final actor has guessed the murder weapon and killed the preceding actor with it, there must be a reckoning of the Place, Occupation, and Weapon to see if the ideas were communicated clearly. This can be fun, as we once had "encyclopedia editor" for an occupation that ended up being communicated as "computer spell-checker."
Popular suggestions for "Place" have been: dentist's office, bathroom stall, and the Death Star. Popular suggestions for "Occupation" have been dentist, camel dung dealer, stripper, and gynecologist. Popular suggestions for "Weapon" have been toothpick, toothbrush, water baloon, and the musical "Pippin." We don't know what the popular fascination with dentists means, either.
