Drama Games #2: Playing Card Status

    This is a great game for Special Improving. All it requires is a deck of playing cards, and a group of people.
Have everyone in the group draw a card and tape it (or just hold it) on their forehead WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE FRONT! Tape it so that the front is facing outward.
    The card tells you what status you are in the pecking order. For example: if you are a Queen, people should treat you like so. If you are an Ace, people should treat you like dirt.
    Let the group walk around as if they are in a Medieval Palace. Judging by the way others treat you, you should be able to guess your status.
    After the group does that, have them line up in the way they think their status is. Have the King(s) on the right side, and the Ace(s) on the left side. After they guess, let them look at their cards and readjust themselves in the line.
