GENRE CARDS
Enhance scenes, characters and storytelling with
these GENRE and MUSIC GENRE
cards.
SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES:
GENRE SCENES–Add a genre to any scene or improvisation to
enhance the scene. Perform a scene multiple times in different genres to discover new things about characters and gain new scene perspective.
GENRE SHIFT–In pairs or small groups, students devise and
perform a scene that begins in one genre and develops into a second genre.
MUSIC VIDEOS–In small groups, students devise and perform a
music video in their allocated music genre. Give students a title or “song name”.
GENRE QUICK SWITCH–Individually; in pairs or small groups,
students play out a monologue or scene and switch genre quickly on cue. A fun and challenging activity and a great rehearsal boost to lift energy when going over lines or the same scenes. Involve audience members by having them pick cards and call out the new genre.
FAIRYTALE SHAKE-UP–In small groups, re-tell and perform a
well known fairytale in an allocated genre. TIP: USE “CHARACTER” “LINE” AND “TITLE” CARDS ALONGSIDE THIS SET
