{"Title":"POTS Bingo","Description":"Spin the “POTS Bingo” wheel to randomly spotlight a key theatre term—from Backdrop and Cyclorama to Downstage, Fourth Wall, Thrust Stage, or Flexible/Black Box Stage. Each spin invites players to define, act out, or sketch the term, making this custom-themed game both fun and educational.\n\nTeaching resources often use bingo to reinforce theatre vocabulary—this format is a popular choice for drama classrooms and icebreakers to spark engagement with essential stage terminology.\n\nFun idea: Host POTS Bingo during rehearsals—spin a term, have performers demonstrate it onstage, and let the audience guess where it applies. It’s a playful way to reinforce spatial awareness and theatre concepts!","FontSize":5,"LabelsList":["Backdrop – a painted curtain that forms part of the scenery.","Batten – a long pipe above the stage used to hang lights or scenery.","Cyclorama (Cyc) – a curtain or wall that covers the back/sides of the stage.","House – the audience seating area.","Auditorium – another word for the house where the audience sits.","Raked Stage – a stage that is slanted up toward the back.","Downstage – the part of the stage closest to the audience.","Upstage – the part of the stage farthest from the audience.","Fourth Wall – the imaginary wall between actors and audience.","Onstage – any place the audience can see.","Offstage – any place the audience cannot see.","Sightlines – what the audience can or cannot see from their seats.","Stage Left – the actor’s left side when facing the audience.","Stage Right – the actor’s right side when facing the audience.","Backstage – the area behind the scenery, not visible to the audience.","Wings – the sides of the stage, just offstage left and right.","Apron – the part of the stage that extends in front of the curtain.","Proscenium Stage – traditional stage with an arch, audience on one side.","Arena Stage – stage in the center, audience on all sides.","Thrust Stage – stage that juts into the audience, seating on three sides.","Flexible Stage / Black Box – a space that can be arranged in many ways.","Found Space – a location not built for theatre but used as one.","Audience Perspective – stage directions given from the actor’s point of view.","Audience Sits on 1 Side – proscenium stage.","Audience Sits on 3 Sides – thrust stage.","Audience Sits on 4/All Sides – arena stage.","Stage Directions – instructions for actor movement on stage.","Blocking – planned movement on stage.","Cross – moving from one part of the stage to another.","Counter / Counter Cross – moving opposite another actor’s cross.","Upstage Left – farthest from audience, actor’s left.","Upstage Center – farthest from audience, center.","Upstage Right – farthest from audience, actor’s right.","Center Stage – the middle of the stage.","Downstage Left – closest to audience, actor’s left.","Downstage Center – closest to audience, center.","Downstage Right – closest to audience, actor’s right.","Full Front – actor faces the audience fully.","¼ Left – actor turns slightly left toward another actor, still open.","¼ Right – actor turns slightly right, still open.","Left Profile – actor faces directly left.","Right Profile – actor faces directly right.","Cheat – turning slightly toward the audience to stay visible.","¾ Left – actor turned mostly left, facing upstage.","¾ Right – actor turned mostly right, facing upstage.","Full Back – actor faces completely away from audience.","Open Position – body turned toward audience.","Closed Position – body turned away from audience.","Teasers – short curtains above the stage that hide lights.","Legs – tall curtains on the sides to mask wings.","Grand Drape – the main front curtain.","Costumes – clothing worn by actors in a play.","Set – scenery and furniture on stage.","Makeup – cosmetics used to enhance or change an actor’s look.","Sound – effects, music, or microphones used in a show.","Props – objects actors handle on stage."],"Style":{"_id":"6298828d36390e389f116a9f","Type":0,"Colors":["#9b5de5","#fbfbfb","#f15bb5","#0a0a0a","#fee440","#00bbf9","#00f5d4"],"Data":[[0,1],[2,3],[4,3],[5,3],[6,3]],"Space":null},"ColorLock":null,"LabelRepeat":1,"ThumbnailUrl":"https://spinthewheel.app/assets/images/preview/pots-bingo.png","Confirmed":true,"TextDisplayType":null,"Flagged":false,"DateModified":"2025-08-22T07:34:22.962Z","CategoryId":7,"Weights":[],"WheelKey":"pots-bingo"}
