THE AUDIENCE
From their phones to your stage
The audience scans a QR code and sends suggestions. You approve them backstage, draw one when the scene needs it, and it appears on the big screen.

How it works
-
Step 1: Choose your boxes
What you'll ask for: a location, a job, a relationship. Up to eight, or let the set list choose from its games.
-
Step 2: Put the QR code up
On the big screen, or print cards for the tables. No app, no sign-up, and a short code for anyone who can't scan.
-
Step 3: Moderate
Approve or reject from any phone, star the best, and mute a phone that's spoiling things. Anything dodgy is flagged for you.
-
Step 4: Draw
From one box, any box, or a few at once. Check it on your phone before it goes up, if you like.
-
Step 5: Wrap up
The approved suggestions go into your troupe's bank. The QR code stays the same for your next show.
Three screens, three jobs
The audience sees the big screen. The performers see the scene. Only the moderator sees the queue.
