THE GAME NIGHT GAME SHOW!  
A mashup of our favorite trivia game shows, with an Industry twist...okay, 3-4 twists.

Presented by the Next Gen and Conservatory Committees, The Game Night Game Show will be a fun evening of food, beverages, camaraderie and SAG-AFTRA themed trivia games modeled after your favorite game shows!

Want to be part of the fun? Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

• Fly solo or bring a friend (union or pre-union**) 
• Bring a snack to share
• Prepare for a trivia night like no other with your chance to win "100 Grand" (as well as some serious bragging rights!) 

(If you are feeling uncertain of your trivia skills - fear not, this is a team activity and you can TOTALLY copy off of your neighbor's test.)

Join us and, who knows, you may even learn a thing or two about your next contract!
