Who Am I?

Please read the overview before the party.

Overview

There are two aspects to this game. One aspect is for you to work out who the eight famous people are. These people are no longer alive. You will be reading the lines for either a famous person or an investigator. No dressing up or costumes are required.

Sometimes a man may end up saying something that a famous woman said and vice versa.

The same person will say the lines and quotes from the same famous person each time.

If you are saying something that is a quote, please use your hands to represent quote marks at the beginning and the end of the quote.

The second aspect of the game is to get to know everyone who is at this party a little better. At the party your host will give you the Heart page (see below) and ask you to fill it out with some details about what you love. For example, in the music section you might write the name of one of your favorite bands and the type of music they play (e.g. “The Rolling Stones (rock)”). If you can, please work out these ahead of time to save some time at the party.

There are also some questions during the play that you should answer as you “yourself”. Hopefully these will help you to get to know yourself a little better and to help everyone here to also get to know you better.

Please go into this with a spirit of openness. Don’t have any expectations as to what may or may not evolve. Just enjoy the process of getting to know yourself and everyone else a bit better.

Anything that is shared should be kept confidential and not shared outside of this room unless you have permission to do so.
