online Super Elective: genre mash up

Level: Intermediate

“What would Sherlock Holmes do in a Black Mirror episode?”

“What would it look like to have Ancient Greek drama set in the Wild West?”

This four week Super Elective is focused on how to take two (or more) improvised genres and combine them to form a unique and wonderful mash-up.

What to expect:

Identifying the fundamental elements that make up a genre/body of work.

Learning how to pinpoint which elements are quintessential to carry into the mash up to make it successful, and what can be left out.

Discovering the best ways to marry different kinds of genres or works.

Lots of time playing with combinations!

This is for you if you are at least an intermediate student and have taken Principles of Genre, our 12 week Genre course, or Three Genres.

Min. participants 6, max. participants 12. If we have to cancel the event due to low numbers, we will do this with 24 hours notice.

This intermediate super-elective runs four Wednesdays 7th July – 28th July, 7.30 – 9.30 pm BST.

Intermediate (3/6 months+) These classes will be opportunities to add tools to your growing toolbox. Normally these classes will expect players to be confident playing scenes. These classes will provide practice and specific new skills.

NB: Our electives frequently sell out, but do not despair if this class has. You have not missed your shot. If enough people join the waiting list, we are often able to put the same class on a few days after or in parallel. So if you were excited, join up and we will be in touch.
