Silent Lines: Education Packs

The Teachers Pack provides information to support the study of Russell Maliphant Dance Company’s Silent Lines (2019) as part of the Pearson Btec Tech Award in Dance, AQA GCSE Dance, RSL Certificate in Performing Arts (Dance), GCE A Level Dance and Btec Level 3 Nationals Tech Levels and Applied Generals. It will also be useful for those studying dance at a range of other levels. 

Each student workbook offers a way to DIG deeper into the piece. In workbook 1 the reader will discover additional information about the processes and methods used in the creation of the work and are encouraged to investigate these aspects so that students can in turn generate something for themselves that relates to that practice.

Workbook 2 contains information to help students appreciate the piece section by section encouraging them to discuss, improvise to create their own innovative ideas in relation to the piece and to grasp and appreciate the constituent features.

The resource as a whole contains biographies, case studies, quotes, interviews, worksheets, role and responsibilities, design concepts, choreographic influences, collaborations, creative tasks, choreographic characteristics and a comprehensive breakdown of each section of the work.
