Roleplay Roulette.

Classroom Game · Level B1–C1
Roleplay Roulette

Spin the wheel, take your roles and improvise. Every scene gives you a setting, two characters, a goal to reach and a handful of useful phrases. Stay in role, use the language, and see where the conversation goes.

How to play
  1. Choose a pair. Two students (or two small groups) come up to perform. The rest of the class is the audience.
  2. Spin a scene. The wheel lands on a scenario card with a setting, two roles, a goal and useful language.
  3. Improvise. Take a role each and act out the scene in English. Try to reach your goal and use the phrases on the card.
  4. Twist! If twists are on, a surprise can drop mid-scene — react to it and keep going.
  5. Next scene. A new pair, a new spin. There are no points — the fun is in the performance.
