Games Library
The Ponies specialize in short-form improv comedy which centers around creating scenes through the context of games and exercises. Included in our library of games are familiar favorites and original creations. We're always updating our collection too!
Take a look to see how each game is played and check out our guide on how to get your suggestions into the show!
You Wish
Each actors receives a handful of written suggestions from the audience and places them in their pockets without reading them. Actors are given a scene and whenever they come across a conflict they may "wish" for something to happen by pulling one of the written suggestions from their pocket and reading it. Whatever the written suggestion is must then be incorporated into the scene.
Your Majesty
One actor begins the scene as the ruler of a kingdom named by the audience. The ruler tells the audience about their priorities, how they plan to lead, and the problems facing their kingdom. Other actors then stand at the opposite end of the stage seeking out an audience with the ruler. They will come bearing gifts, or services that they may provide. As they tell the ruler what they have for them, the ruler may ask them to come closer, stop them, or send them off to be executed if their gift insults the royalty. The game continues until the ruler accepts at least of of the gifts offered and takes that actor as their advisor.
