Word at a Time Expert<\/h1>\n

Description<\/h2>\n

Three players stand next to each other shoulder to shoulder to play one entire person (or in this case an expert in something), who speaks one word at at time. Then another player plays the interviewer. All you need from the audience is something for someone to be an expert in (like rollerskating fish, or dancing plants) and you\u2019re away!<\/p>\n

The interviewer treats the game as if we\u2019ve just zoned in on a TV channel all about that expertise and proceeds to interview our expert, who given that it\u2019s a word at a time answer, often makes sense in the funniest and weirdest of ways. Getting them to read an extract from their imaginary autobiography always goes down well.<\/p>\n
