ONLINE WORKSHOP - Genre Club - The Wrong Future
We look into the near future, at the world ours will become. At a future that is far from perfect, no matter how it may seem so at first. Together we’ll make our own bleak visions of the future and feel a little less bad about the present.

Time & Location

About the Event
Taught by Peter More
This edition: The Wrong Future
We’ll take the lead from dystopian works of fiction such as 1984, The Handmaid's Tale and Black Mirror and see how to build and explore these worlds. Suitable for intermediate improv players.
‶The first rule of Genre Club is you tell everybody!″
We’ll look at…
- Ways of performing: acting style, staging, character choices.
- Content: typical story arcs, common types of scene
- Background: a little about the genre, time period, etc, to understand why it is what it is and to know what would fit in and what would not feel like part of the genre.
- Practical: We'll look at ways applying this to improvisation in particular for a modern audience.
- Movies, shows and plays you should watch to understand this genre better.
The workshop will be both theoretical (with analysis and discussion) and practical, with a chance to try scenes in the style with coaching from an expert.
