Dancers wear plain paper masks and move slowly and deliberately to a steady drumbeat.

The drummer suddenly stops, and dancers must freeze in an exaggerated pose matching their mask's character.

3

A judge eliminates the least convincing freeze each round.

4

Play continues with fewer dancers each round.

5

The last dancer remaining wins.
