5 things is a miming guessing game for eight to ten players.

Players form two teams of four or five players. Each picks a guesser who leaves the room.

The audience gives suggestions for:

    1. What each guesser is doing
    2. Instead of usual implement, what they are doing their actions with
    3. Where each guesser is doing it
    4. What each guesser is wearing
    5. Who each guesser is doing the action with

The guessers return. after a quick meeting and greeting, consisting entirely of gibberish, the teams must use mime and gibberish to communicate each of the audience's offers. The guessers must only use mime and gibberish as well, and when a guesser guesses one of the suggestions, players should clap and "remove" the object from the scene i.e. if they've been acting the clothing, they mime ripping off the guesser's clothes; if they've been acting the place, they do a quick mime of the scene being ripped away.

The ref should alternate between teams to keep progress even.

The fewer number of people acting a suggestion, the better. Mimers should not do the first action themselves but should find some other way of getting the guesser to guess it.

When performing this in front of an audience, actors should be wary of taking too long.
