Curious New World performed by Level 4 Professional Diploma in Performance
This exciting project is based upon ‘The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time’ adapted by the students of the Level 4 Professional Diploma in Performance. Using the original play as a starting point, the students created a hybrid fusion of live stage and pre-recorded elements. As Covid struck again, the students adapted magnificently to stage scenes using only Zoom and Teams group video chat and integrate them seamlessly into live shot scenes once we were back in college. Filming took place in our new TV studios at Inspired in Brierley Hill, where we managed to bring Christopher’s unique perspective of the world to life with dramatic results. Everyone involved thoroughly enjoyed the process and we are all extremely proud of the result.
