Charades based on actual tabloid stories! Tabloid Chardes is intended as a light-hearted diversion, not a game of heated competition. Teams work with, not against, one another. A member of TEAM 1 acts out a charade on his team card while TEAM 2 guesses, then a member of TEAM 2 acts while TEAM 1 guesses. The charades in each round round do not have to be performed in any particular order. Each performer is free to act out the charade of his choice, and may seek the help of other team members if stuck. The game has been designed to play in one evening. VARIATIONS 1. Instead of the performer choosing the charade he will act out, have the other team pick a number. 2. Certain charades might be taken on as a group project, with team members acting together to achieve the desired effect.
