Head of Tasks

Inspired by Alex Horne's Taskmaster.

Poster for Head of Tasks

Head of Tasks is the first (to my knowledge) Yale-themed game show hosted right here on campus! This production is neither a scripted play, nor a musical, but a literal game show with contestants, hosts, and a live audience. Head of Tasks takes heavy inspiration from one of my favorite game shows of all time: Taskmaster on Channel 4. Alex Horne, the creator of Taskmaster, has actively encouraged spinoffs and DIY versions of his game show online, which gave me the inspiration to create a version that utilizes tasks that you could carry out only around iconic spots on Yale’s campus. Your first task is to watch an episode of Taskmaster to understand the format of this show. Your time starts now.
