Helping Students to See the People, Not Just the Dance 

by Emma Rollins, dramaturg As dramaturgs, we had the opportunity to run workshops with the dancers. We played games from their dances’ countries of origin and we also quizzed them on their knowledge of advent and the same countries as mentioned before. This helped them to see the humanity and reality of the people they’re representing when they dance, hopefully helping them to feel a better understanding and connection to them.  Here are the links to the different Kahoots we quizzed them on.  Try them out and see if you know the answers! Advent:

9 o’clock

10 o’clock

2 o’clock

Tier 2
