I remember seeing a interview with Judi Dench and a game they used to play was every cast members hide a red dot on them and the rest of the cast had to try and find it during the performance. And Someone hid the dot on the sole of their shoe.
The peg game happens on scout camps too, mainly on jambourees (camps where there are groups from around the country and people from abroad sometimes go, there are thousands of people there). You write your group and what subcamp you're on on some pegs in sharpie or felt tip (whatever your group has with them) and walk around the camp with them and peg random people whilst you're on activities (if the person notices they will let you know, sometimes they keep the peg sometimes they get you to take it back, it depends on the person, most people are complete strangers). Sometimes there are specific targets on one cub camp the challenge was to peg Bear Grylls (chief scout) when he was visiting and one of the groups managed it and he didn't realise. You get back to your camp at the end of the day and take your neckerchief off to find that there are loads of pegs on it, or the bottom of your t-shirt. It continues for the entire camp (usually a week).
We play the peg game at music festivals. My mum's friend makes unique pegs for each different festival and then we go around seeing who can peg the most people and get them in the best places without the person they're pegging seeing it. I'm not very good at it but my dad once pegged a band member and pegged it on one of his dreadlocks. He didn't notice for hours and when he did notice, he pinned it on to his backpack and still has it to this day.
In panto, we had something that was like a game... whenever someone messed up in the show; so if they forgot a line, missed a cue or something then they would get given a wooden spoon and it was passed on to the next person that messed up, whoever had it at the end of the run had to do something like buy everyone a drink or do a silly dare
That game sounds like such a laugh! So many interesting ways people were thinking of. I would never have thought to write dead next to the sign in sheet 😂
At my theatre group we play a game which is quite similar to your ‘murder’ game when it is our show week each year. Basically we each get someone else’s name and we have to try to kill them. The way you kill them is you have to be in a room with them on their own, but the doors have to be shut and it can only happen in the breaks or before and after rehearsals/shows. It makes me really nervous too because you are constantly wondering if your friends have got you so you don’t want to go anywhere with people but you also can’t go anywhere alone just incase. People always try to do it in the toilets so you are safe nowhere😂
one of my favourite memories of last summer was the waitress cast getting some of us at stage door to help them kill each other when they were playing that murder game! just pure chaos 😂
We play the bonus ball at work but because there’s only about 12 of us who play it regularly rolls over. One Sunday morning I was in Milton Keynes attending a Comic Con and was walking through the shopping centre and they had a display with the numbers on and I saw my number had come up which won me £330!
Been to Thursford nearly every year since it started in 1977. Learnt about the word game in the raffle a few years ago and it's great fun trying to work out what the word is. Will miss it this year....
I was in our Assasins Society at university. Pretty much the same game but campus wide. Our poisons were things like toothpaste on the door handle etc, lots of water guns for shootings etc. We didnt have the rule where it's got to be alone though. Witnesses were good in our game. 👍🏻
We play Assassins at the kids camps I work on, but we do it with objects and locations e.g. Kill them with a piece of string by a tree. Once you kill someone you get their target, and you can kill people in front of others. One year one of the kids in my group was trying to kill another one of the staff members, Liam, and he'd noticed what she was trying. About 15 minutes later I had an accident and severely sprained both my ankles and was screaming in agony. My girls ran up to find another staff member and the first one they found was Liam. Of course he thought they were trying to kill him again so was going "oh yeah sure Lola's hurt very funny" while strolling along... Until he heard me screaming. Apparently no one had ever seen him run so fast 😂
late to the party but when i was scare acting in my attraction we used to play a game simply just called “The Game” where the objective is to get someone alone with no other cast members or audience and you tell them they’ve lost the game and then they’re out. it was so frustrating tho cause you’d always forget you were playing until someone reminded you. 😭😭 this was a year ago and yet i still recieve messages on the group chat reminding everyone they’re lost the game 😭
Another version of the assassin game is one I've seen played as cleaners on camps and its a bit similar to Cluedo where you are given a person, a place and a weapon and basically you have to hand your person the "weapon" in the place and that's how you get them and if you do that you get their person, place and thing. Some were really easy like a spoon in the kitchen and so it wouldn't be suspicious for you to hand them over. Others were nearly impossible like a beanbag in the feild where baisically your only bet was to suprise throw it at them and hope they instictually tried to catch (and you'd only get one good try at this really). It was also a lot of fun because as the days went on people would get more and more suspicious of you handing them things.
@@hannahlou5176 Honestly it was and I can't wait to play again although you have to make sure you have plenty of time to play especially if you have difficult ones 😂
i was doing stage crew for an amateur production of spamalot and we had an ongoing game of monopoly throughout the week and one day we got so into it that we missed our cue for one of the scene changes and because the crew were also the knights of ni i ended up going on stage as a knight of ni with monopoly money in my hand because i'd been counting it out so that was fun
I’ve played assassin at a summer camp 😁😂 it was just amongst the leaders and the kids were so confused as to why we would tell each other were dead and then get annoyed at each other 😂
This made me think of a game called "the peg game" which is fairly simple, there is a peg and you have to try and hide it on people without them noticing ('pegging them'), then when they notice they will take it off and try and pass it on. Then at the end of an allotted time period the person with the peg has a forfeit!! It's such a fun, and slightly embarrassing, game which I think would work well with a cast! Whoops I hadn't watched the whole video yet!!
We used to play a similar game on our school music tour where you'd each pick a name, place and "weapon" out of a hat and would have to kill that person in the specific place by giving them the weapon and them willingly taking it from you. You'd then inherit their target, place and weapon. Sometimes you'd get really easy combinations (I once accidentally killed myself with a music stand, in a concert venue, when I went back as staff because a little year 7 was making a point of struggling to open it and I offered to take it from her haha) but it would often be really obscure items (a toothbrush on the coach) that needed loads of build up to get someone to take it from you. It was a really fun element to the tours and got people interacting outside of their group of friends.
Y'all make assassins way more complicated, we used to do it just w you have to mark the other, when you kill them you get their target, there are safe areas, last one standing wins
My theatre group when we were doing shows in the girls dressing room and in our break between shows we always played paranoia and never have I ever and it always got really intense
I've played a version of this game!! But we all got a murder weapon and place, e.g. kill Carrie on the sofa with a phone, but some of them for really weird so if u saw someone coming at you with 5 toilet rolls you knew you were in trouble. Also because there were so many conditions people could be witnesses, then afterwards you would get that person's card and complete their murder!!!
See government? Theatre is worth saving! The fact that a show that haven’t even started rehearsal yet is selling out so fast
Remember Oliver talking loads about munchkin in one of the Wednesday videos?? 😂
that cut-off „ladies and gentleman“ gave me so many feels😢
i've played a version of assassin called word assassin. everybody gets a person and a word they have to get that person to say. it's really fun
I remember seeing a interview with Judi Dench and a game they used to play was every cast members hide a red dot on them and the rest of the cast had to try and find it during the performance. And Someone hid the dot on the sole of their shoe.
I’m a scare actor and we play assassin too! It’s VERY scary playing in a scare maze in the dark with scary music 😭
I’m coming to the first night of Frozen!! So excited to finally see it.
Have a great time! Xx

We did that at the Australian Jamboree. Wish I could be back there in covid free times
Hitchhiker's Handbook oml the hampshire jamboree a few years back was amazing for pegs😂🤪
I love the way Oli says "Mario Kart" with his accent haha.
Me and a friend booked to see Frozen and Cinderella last night, so excited!!

Good morning Carrie and Oliver! 😀

Why do they give show runtimes at the end of each show?
