Mandated show themes?


Recommended Posts

My single biggest fear is that we will end up with multiple corps playing the same music.

Yeah … no. For one thing, do you have any faith in DCI (we know, who is the corps) picking a theme not designed by committee?

I love the diversity of DCI shows but this would make a really interesting challenge for offseason or something. I imagine the themes being simple  concepts expressed in a couple words that can be interpreted many ways.

Some ideas I came up with:

Good and evil

Animals

Inside a mind

Pathway

The good old days

Battle

Mythical

360 degrees

Elemental

Unity

What if DCI tried an experiment for one year. A mandated show theme that all corps must interpret. Kind of like they do with floats in the Rose Parade.

I would love to see how all corps would interpret a common topic. What risks? Many units might sound and look similar. 
 

Thoughts?

you can have my seats

Like Children of Sanchez.  Watch 79 finals and you’ll know what I mean.  I can only imagine how many non-finalists played it.  I watched prelims in Birmingham but I think I’ve blocked it out.

The entire guard uses the seldom seen "red balloons" for their weapons work. I dig this concept and will absolutely NOT watch ANY of the shows as that 1990 mini-series scared the @^^&# out of me. It could however be a neat "SCV" effect as the entire corps disappears under storm drains at the end of the show..../shiver

(hypothetical SCV opening narration)
