Dream Round

Dreams are crazy, mixed-up, ransacked—and most of all, personal—retellings. They are our imaginations gone wild. And voila! The Dream Round!

In the Dream Round, students devise a “remixed” performance piece to explore a character, theme, or story that they want to tell in an original and creative way. Unlike the Scene Round, which is a single linear scene from Richard III, for the Dream Round students “mash up” text into a wholly original and imaginative performance piece, created from:

1. text sampled from King Richard III exclusively, OR
2. language from Shakespeare’s Richard III “in conversation” with a single published author, playwright, poet, orator, or songwriter

For inspiration on what you can create in your Dream Round, check out the clips below to see what some SLAM teams cooked up in 2018 and 2019.
