A Dance That Uses a Prop..!! Dance HomeWork.!!

Footloose-Musical. (THE DANCE)


Footloose was originated in 1984. It was opened at Broadway’s Richard Rodgers in 1998 on October 22nd. This musical has been shown to numerous Productions, and was/is performed with such creativity and exciting expressions in their dance. It was directed by Walter Bobbie and choreographed by A.C.Ciulla.

It is one of the most frequent performed school musicals in recent years, at least in the United States.

However in their pieces of dance, they use various props such as:
· Chairs
· Lockers
· House doors
· Dinner hangout spot
· Handmade Costumes

Their choreographed moves are very Energetic and shown with flair.


WHY DO DANCERS USE PROPS IN DANCE?
Dancers use props to make their dance moves interesting, also I think if they do use props it shows rhythm and more expressiveness in the dance rather than having no props at all.

WHAT ARE PROPS?
Props are objects that dancers manipulate or use to enhance their dance.

I have also included props to the dance that I have created with the rest of my classmates we used things like:
  • Hat, Scarves, Gloves, Coat
  • Pyjamas
  • Mug
  • Blanket .etc.

They were of good use to our dance and they also helped us to tell a story using them.
