Subject: 'Playing' With Titles - A Challenge
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Oct 18 23
So often around here challenges come up where we ask authors to take an existing title and make it into something new. This is going to do much of the same, but the focus will be turning to famous stage plays and stage musicals.
In this challenge, we have eight plays and eight musicals, but we're looking for twenty-four quizzes, so eight that are not listed here are also up for grabs. Any category works, and we recommend making use of the Quiz Subtitle option where necessary to make clear that your quiz is deviating from the expectation that might be held for the name. The title of your quiz must be the same as the title of the play or musical you select, even if the contents vary.
As a note, a total of FOUR quizzes (out of twenty-four) MUST be about the actual play or musical; you'll likely be sending those to Humanities.
Authors may claim or add one title at a time, but they may claim/add another if their previous one goes online.
Now go break a leg. Good luck!
(And thanks to Kaddarsgirl for the challenge concept!)

I'll have "Sleuth", but not about the play. I'll start writing the questions in November, to make it count for QuiWriMo. Reply #21. Oct 20 23, 2:17 PM |

Speaking of which, there is going to be a change of structure this year, to take advantage of some of the recent additions to the quiz writing options on the site, which have made it increasingly difficult to work out what constitutes a question. Stay tuned for an announcement in the very near future with details about this year's QuiWriMo project! And get your pencils sharpened, paper stacked, and computer warmed up, ready to write.

May I use a wildcard and choose "Six Characters in Search of an Author", stageplay by Pirandello? It will not be about the play. Reply #33. Nov 16 23, 4:57 AM |
