Please name a live theatre production you have seen recently. Can you tell me what genre it was? What things do you see/hear that made you think it was this genre?

This question is to get the student to link theory with live theatre performance. It is also question that goes beyond the 'learning-off' of categories. Each student should be able to pick out the basic tenets of each genre and be willing to discuss them.
