Break the Ice With 10 Fingers
A fantastic game for getting to know a fresh group of new actors in acting class is called “10 fingers.” All the players get in a circle, holding all 10 fingers up in the air. One person at a time will start asking personal questions that take yes-no answers only; whoever cannot answer yes to a question, drops a finger. The last person with a finger left wins. This is a great ice breaker when you’re just starting out in an acting class and it’s a great way to get to know your potential stage partners and how they work.
Good questions are things like “I have a cat”, “I have never stolen anything” and so on. Take note of the kinds of questions people ask. That says a lot about their personalities as well as their answers!
This game is a great appetizer for another ice-breaking game called “Story Tellers” Everyone gets in a circle and one person picked at random starts telling a story. The instructor then points to another player at random who must finish the story without stumbling.
things can get pretty funny when playing this game. This is more of a warm-up and a way of getting to know others rather than a performing game.
This is also a great game to play at parties or any social gathering. This kind of game is a great way to eliminate pressure on people to get to know each other without things feeling awkward. What better way to break the ice than with 10 Fingers!
