BACKSTORY BUILDER

The Backstory Builder is an interactive game designed to help drama students develop rich and detailed backstories for the characters they are creating in a devised theatre process. Using a roulette wheel and a numbered prompt system, students explore different aspects of their characters’ lives, such as origins, life events, relationships, secrets, daily life, and motivations.

The flexible format allows teachers to tailor the activity to individual, pair, or ensemble work, making it suitable for a wide range of explorations.
