I purchased one - it's called "Theatre is Tragic" and is a spin off of Cards Against Humanity and is created by a company (?) called TrulyHorribleThings. My students have played it and enjoy it.
There is also an expansion deck called "director's version" - that one I DO NOT give to my students but it certainly gives me a chuckle :)

There was a vendor selling a theatre-specific card game at ITF two years ago. I don't remember the name of it but I bet someone else does. I wish I had bought it now.

Hi
I just spent the last twenty minutes of my last class of the quarter playing Uno with my students and I realized this was a really good thing - they had to engage with each other, it was totally non threatening and they were having fun. So it got me thinking are there board games out there that are theatre related - particularly backstage elements?
I hope somebody has some ideas - if they don't exist maybe we need to get a group together and design one!!!
