Suitable for all ages of pupils at all stages of drama development A Pack of Lies is a set of resource cards that have an array of subjects, topics and information printed on them that can be dealt to drama students to assist development of natural spontaneity, creativity and essential acting skills.
By treating the resource as a well shuffled pack of cards, the students will not know what character they are to be, what emotion is to be played, where it will be played or indeed what situation they will be in until they have been dealt their cards.
Not too much pressure!
The effect can be entirely humorous or indeed quite tragic - it depends of the fall of the cards and the skill of the actors.
The audience too, are naturally involved because they have cards dealt to them. All audiences make assessments of what they are watching and with A Pack of Lies they are asked individually to watch for certain aspects of performance.
So everyone is involved in A Pack of Lies.
As a classroom resource for curriculum drama, GCSE Drama, A Level Theatre Studies or even extra-curricula work, this is a fun and exciting way to improve all aspects of the drama experience.
From spontaneity, creative imagination and enhancing voice and movement techniques, to appreciating the performance product, from the necessary aspects required for examinations, or simply to understand performance qualities more fully - A Pack of Lies will deal all the possibilities and opportunities to your students in an endless stream of permutations, creating something unique every time it is played.
A Pack of Lies is a card game designed to get to the truth of acting.
