Write a Synopsis

Page 1 / 45

The purpose of this game is to write a synopsis for a work (book, movie, TV show, etc.) based just off the title.

Example:
Poster 1: Wuthering Heights
Poster 2: A book about mountain geography.
The Woman in White
Poster 3: An in-depth look at bridal fashion.
The Cat in the Hat

Rules:
1. Keep titles, synopses, and works themselves appropriate.
2. Use existing works; don't create new titles.
3. Creative titles - and synopses - encouraged.
4. Rare or regional works are fine, though it's also a lot of fun to reinterpret well-known works.
5. Keep synopses short - one sentence, if possible.

Let's get started - Much Ado About Nothing.

God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay.
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan's pow'r
When we were gone astray.
