About Pantomime Charades

A traditional parlor game for large or small groups, charades was once so popular as an after-dinner activity that it was known simply as "The Game." Its recorded history dates back to 16th century France, and the name has become a catchphrase for many different pantomime games. Many boxed versions with suggestions and timers are available, and several TV shows have been made using the basic idea of the game.
