Task 2: Sir Matthew Bourne OBE 

Task 1 a)  

Watch the interview below 'Insight Conversation with Matthew Bourne' and identify 20 key facts about Bourne. You could collect key facts about his upbringing, dance training, dance style, professional works and/or his inspiration. 

We will be going to see his version of Romeo and Juliet in October. A fundamental part of our course is to analyse the choreography of practitioners such as Matthew Bourne and link their choreographic decisions to their lives; from their upbringing, right up until their first creation of professional works.

Task 1 b) 

Watch 15 minutes of  Swan Lake ( you can choose which section you watch)  and the trailers for Romeo and Juliet, Sleeping Beauty and The Red Shoes. 

Make a list of all the elements of the physical setting that you see: 

- Costume 

- Set 

- Staging 

- Props
