A character is questioned by the group about his or her background, behaviour and motivation. The method may be used for developing a role in the drama lesson or rehearsals, or analysing a play post-performance.

Even done without preparation, it is an excellent way of fleshing out a character. Characters may be hot-seated individually, in pairs or small groups. The technique is additionally useful for developing questioning skills with the rest of the group. The traditional approach is for the pupil playing the character to sit on a chair in front of the group arranged in a semi-circle , although characters may be hot-seated in pairs or groups.

It is helpful if the teacher takes on the role of facilitator to guide the questioning in constructive directions.
