The game's question
Nothing to guess here: read it aloud, ask the question, and let the story come.
The first time is a memory of its own. Maybe it was a big theater: the lights going down, the curtain opening, the screen lighting up in the dark. Maybe it was a drive-in, with the speaker hooked on the car window and the kids already in pajamas. Tell each other: what was your first movie on the big screen, and who took you?
Tell the story—every memory is welcome
Need a hint?
Ask about the name of the theater, the seat, the snacks from the counter. Then, gently: “And what happened next?” Let the story take its time.
Why this game : The best part of this story is telling it while someone listens closely.
