We’ve spent over a year collaborating with many brilliant and daring individuals to create new resource packs on A Linha Curva and Rooster. As well as helping teachers to prepare students for all the elements required to study these works, these packs aim to provide a deeper exploration of the social, cultural and historical contexts of the works, with talking points designed to support the development of pupils’ critical thinking by relating some of the complex topics and themes of the pieces to their lived experience. We’re very grateful for all the people who offered their expertise on this journey, including diversity consultants Elma Glasgow and Rachel Gnagniko, former dancers Miguel Altunaga and Patricia Okenwa, Assistant Professor Rosamaria Kostic Cisneros, Dr Katia Chornik, Dr Vinicius Mariano de Carvalho, Dr Frederick Moehn, Professor Sunny Singh, Dr Ben Walters, teacher Hilary Seaton and Amy Williams from One Dance UK.
