2 THE NEW VICTORY THEATER The New Victory Theater is New York City s first full-time performing arts theater for kids, their families and classmates. Since it opened in 1995, The New Victory has quickly become an integral part of the cultural landscape in New York City, presenting a full season of adventurous multidisciplinary works from around the globe and close to home. The New Vic seeks out sophisticated, thought-provoking, professional productions that are as artistically rich as they are entertaining. The international productions on New Victory stages inform and inspire the work of the award-winning New Victory Education Program through a dynamic combination of school and public programs. Our school programs serve over 35,000 Pre-K through 12th grade students and teachers each season at almost no cost to the kids or their schools. Many of our partners are NYC-area Title I schools, with a high percentage of students who would be unable to experience live theater if it weren t for The New Victory. The enthusiastic young people who greet you on your way into the theater are part of the New Vic Usher Corps, a 3-year program that provides 27,000 hours of paid employment for high school and college-age youth each season. Families who attend the New Vic together combine their theater-going with New Victory Family Workshops, as well as free in-theater engagement activities. Together, these nationally-recognized programs exemplify the organization s long-standing commitment to the intrinsic value of cultural participation in the lives of young people and families. NEW VICTORY EDUCATION PARTNERSHIP The New Victory Education Department is committed to building impactful and long-lasting relationships with schools and after-school programs. We believe that creating strong and meaningful partnerships between schools and arts organizations allows school communities to deeply enrich their arts programs and infuse creativity across the curriculum. By annually enrolling in the unique and award-winning New Victory Education Partnership Program, schools take advantage of $2 tickets to New Victory school-time and after-school performances, free classroom workshops led by highly skilled teaching artists, in-depth resources and professional development that allow teachers to incorporate the arts into their classrooms. NEW VICTORY SCHOOL TOOL RESOURCE GUIDES Available to Education Partners for every show in our season, New Victory School Tool Resource Guides provide educators with comprehensive materials that explore the artistry and key themes of each production. Filled with practical, ready-to-implement activities that allow any teacher to incorporate The New Victory into their classroom, the New Victory School Tool Resource Guides are designed to enrich the performance experience before, during and after the students trip to the theater.

5 inside UNTAPPED! [ ] Tap Dance + Live Music + Beatboxing + Charisma = UNTAPPED! Hot off their world tour, UNTAPPED! (New Vic, 2011) deftly defies tap conventions for a dance expression that's all its own. Mixing street dance styles, percussion and a healthy dose of Aussie humor, these high-octane hoofers bring intricate syncopation to a playlist of funk, hip hop, jazz and rock. Joined by a beatboxer and a live band, this charismatic crew will have you tapping along to this raucous reinvention of rhythm. WHERE IN THE WORLD IS UNTAPPED! FROM? ATLANTIC OCEAN AFRICA EUROPE NORTH EUROPE AMERICA INDIAN OCEAN ASIA PACIFIC OCEAN AUSTRALIA X CLOSER LOOK AT UNTAPPED! The company UNTAPPED! was started in 1998 by Andrew Fee and four fellow tap dancers in Australia. They now act as ambassadors for dance education, leading workshops for people all around the globe. AUSTRALIA BRISBANE X UNTAPPED! features elements of funk, tap, hip hop, break dance, beatboxing, contemporary dance and percussion. The show is made up of 5 dancers and 3 musicians (guitar, drums and bass). DID YOU KNOW: One of the dancers in UNTAPPED!, Jack Chambers, won the first season of So You Think You Can Dance Australia in 2008! Brisbane is the third most populous city in Australia. Brisbane is more affectionately referred to as Bris-Vegas, due to its flashy lifestyle. Last year, Brisbane had 283 days of sunshine and a winter that rarely dipped below 70ºF (or 20ºC). 5

6 INSIDE THE ART FORM inside UNTAPPED! WHAT DO YOUR STUDENTS KNOW NOW? Prior to exploring UNTAPPED! with your students, find out how much they already know about TAP DANCE and BEATBOXING. Have you seen tap dancing before? Where? Have you ever tried tap dancing yourself? If so, how does tap dancing make you feel? What are some rhythms you can create using only your feet? TAP DANCE Born from the melting pot of America, tap dance fuses African tribal dancing with Scottish, Irish and English hornpipes and jigs. It s defined best as a rhythmic step dance with hard soled shoes or shoes with soles and heels to which taps have been added. This fusion first premiered in the 1820s and has since evolved into an integral part of our country s cultural canon. To this day, people around the globe are still wowed by the tapping talents of the late Fred Astaire and Sammy Davis Jr. and living legend Savion Glover. What s a word that reminds you of a musical sound? (i.e. BOOM, SLAM, POW) Can you think of a song that includes beatboxing? Can you imitate an instrument using only your voice and mouth? BEATBOXING Beatboxing is a form of vocal percussion using one s mouth, lips, tongue and voice to produce rhythmic musical sounds. The term was coined in the 1980s after drum machines or beat boxes, were succeeded by the first human beatboxer, Doug E. Fresh. Like any art form, beatboxing requires an initial level of skill and interest, but through breathing exercises and learning the correct pronunciations of beatbox language, you ll be a beatboxer in no time! 6

7 UNIT PLAN BRAINSTORM inside UNTAPPED! Check out these ideas for how to incorporate UNTAPPED! into a unit plan! Then, use specific activities from this guide that we recommend for each topic. DESIGN YOUR OWN TAP SHOES (SCIENCE) What s the best design for a tap shoe? Create an experiment to find out! Have your students propose a design for the best possible tap shoe. What kind of materials make the best sounds for tapping? How heavy or light should the shoe be? What shoe shape creates the best sound and is most flexible for dancing? Have your students write a materials list and draw their design proposal. Students may even want to include a new innovation or style to make their tap shoe unique. We suggest using the A Star is Born Creativity Page in the Before section to get your students thinking about their tap shoe designs. TAP DANCE HISTORY (DANCE HISTORY, SOCIAL STUDIES, ELA) Tap dance has a rich and exciting history! Have your students research the history and evolution of this American art form. Assign students a style of tap or a prominent tap dancer. Have students present their findings to the rest of the class. In addition, ask students to watch a movie or attend a live performance (in addition to UNTAPPED!) that involves tap dancing. Have students compare and contrast the tap dancing they saw in UNTAPPED! to these other types of tap dancing. We suggest starting with the Newspaper Review in the After section to get students thinking critically about their experience at UNTAPPED! TAPPING MATH (MATH) Connect the rhythms of UNTAPPED! to your mathematics lesson. Start by asking your students if they can identify any connections between rhythm, music and mathematics. Then, split students into small groups and assign each group a different single-digit number. Tell students that it s their job to create a tap step that has their assigned number of beats. Once each group has created their tap step, have a dancing math drill! See if your students can add, subtract, multiply and divide based on hearing two group s different tap steps. We suggest starting with the Tap it Out activity in the After section to get your students familiar with the rhythms and beats of various tap steps. 7

9 before UNTAPPED! ACTIVITY: GENERATE A GENRE UNTAPPED! fuses many genres of music such as jazz, hip hop, funk and electronic music to create a unique, multi-faceted rhythmic soundscape. Now it s your turn to generate a new musical fusion! 1. Have your students form a circle and as a group, choose two different genres of music (ex: salsa and country). 2. Have students brainstorm the characteristics of each genre and describe these characteristics on the board. You can ask students the following to get the brainstorm started: What kind of instruments are generally used in this genre? What kind of rhythms do you hear in each genre? What kind of melodies do you hear in these genres? What makes these genres unique? How does each genre make you want to move or dance? 3. Break your students into two large groups and assign each group one of the genres. Using the characteristics brainstormed, tell students to come up with a very short sound or melody that falls under their assigned genre. Once they decide on this sound or melody, everyone in the group should sing/say/play this sound or melody all together and then repeat it on a steady beat 5-10 times (this is called looping). 4. Once each group has rehearsed this a few times, bring everyone back together and have each group perform their sound/melody for the entire class. 5. Now, initiate a steady beat ( clapped out) and invite one group to start their sound or melody and loop it continually. Then, ask the second group to loop their sound/melody over the top of the first sound/melody. Encourage students to listen closely to their fusion and adjust the rhythm, pacing or melody to create a cohesive fusion of genres. Try this a few times until the class is happy with the fusion of various rhythms. 6. To extend this activity, challenge your students to mashup four or more genres! You can even try to have each student create their own sound/melody and create a loop of each student s unique sound. REFLECTION QUESTIONS What was exciting about our genre mashup? What was challenging about combining two different genres of music? Why do you think musicians often combine different musical genres? How do you think the performers in UNTAPPED! will combine music and dance of different genres? S 9

14 TRIP GUIDE Provide this resource to the School Trip Leader and all teachers/chaperones attending the performance. BEFORE YOU LEAVE SCHOOL We advise you to LEAVE ALL BAGS AND LUNCHES at school, if possible. If not, bags will be collected by New Victory staff and stored during the performance. Plan to arrive at the New Victory venue at least minutes before curtain time. The building opens one hour prior to curtain (i.e. 10:00am for an 11:00am performance). If you realize that your group is running late, please contact the theater DIRECTLY at If you will be arriving by bus, please ensure that your driver drops your group off on the north side of 42 nd Street between 7 th and 8 th Avenues. ARRIVAL When you reach 42nd Street, a member of the New Victory Front of House staff wearing a green vest will check in with the school trip leader. If you arrive by bus, they will direct your bus to a location on the street where it is safest to unload the students. It is important to wait until our staff checks in the School Trip Leader and Bus Driver, before unloading the students. They will record the bus number and give the School Trip Leader and the bus correlating tags. Please remember to exchange cell numbers between the School Trip Leader and the Bus Driver. The Front of House staff will give a time for the bus to return to pick up your school group. THE QUESTION OF LUNCH New Victory venues are not equipped to host lunch/snacks. In the early autumn and spring months, nearby Bryant Park (42 nd Street at 6 th Avenue) offers a pleasant place for lunching, and there are also public restroom facilities. SEATING In order to make your experience at the theater as efficient and safe as possible, you will not be issued tickets. Your group will be assigned seats in advance by the Education Department.

18 PERFORMANCE REFLECTION after PEDAL PUNK Following your trip to the New Victory, you may find that your students want to discuss the performance and their own opinions. Reflecting on the show and voicing an aesthetic response is an important part of the theater-going experience. Allowing your students the opportunity to articulate their own thoughts and hear the ideas of their classmates will increase the impact of the theater experience. What did you enjoy most about the show? What is one thing that surprised you about the show? What is one thing you would have changed in the show? What different kinds of music and dance did you hear and see? How did the company combine these different forms? If you were to learn one dance move you saw in the show, what move would you want to learn and why? TEACHER TIP Engaging in dialogue, asking questions and recalling observations are skills that we believe should be fostered and encouraged. When leading a performance reflection discussion, try the following model of critical response: Describe (I saw ) Analyze (I wonder ) Interpret (I think/feel ) Evaluate (I believe ) 18

19 PERFORMANCE REFLECTION Be a dance critic and write your own review of UNTAPPED! Your review should include the following elements: An eye-catching headline, an opening that clearly states your opinion of the production and how you came to have that opinion, a brief summary of what you saw and what made this production unique. Don t forget to think about the set, costumes, lighting, music and dance. HEADLINE: WHAT I SAW: WHAT SURPRISED ME: HOW THE SHOW MADE ME FEEL (What mood were you in after the show? What about the show made you feel that way?): MY OPINION (Consider the music, dance, set, costumes and lighting):

20 after UNTAPPED! ACTIVITY 2: TAP IT OUT! Teach your students some of the basic tap dance steps they will see in UNTAPPED! Once they ve mastered these steps, have them create their own rhythms by choreographing a tap routine. 1. As a class, try out the following basic tap steps: Toe (tip): Lift one foot off the floor and then tap that foot s toe on the floor. Heel: Tap your heel on the floor while keeping your toes on the ground. Toe Heel: Combine the Toe and Heel steps above (this will have the feeling of walking in place). Stamp: Lift your foot and then place it flat against the floor, shifting your weight onto that foot (if you try multiple stamps in a row, switch feet for each stamp). Slide: Keeping one foot planted firmly on the ground, slide the toe of the opposite foot across the floor in any direction. Shuffle: Lift one foot off the ground, then brush just your toe back and forth to create the sound of a shuffle. Chug: Lift your heels and slide forward on your toes. Then, drop your heels at the end of the slide. Hop: Standing on one foot, propel yourself into the air and then land on the ball of that same foot. Leap: Standing on one foot, propel yourself into the air and then land on the ball of your opposite foot (if you try a few of these in a row, you will be leaping from side to side). 2. Once you ve tried the steps as a class, let your students practice some of these steps on their own or in small groups. Encourage them to think about the quality of sound that each of these steps make. Ask: Which steps sound soft and light? Which steps sound hard and heavy? Which steps can make an elongated sound? Which steps can only make a short staccato sound? 3. Break your students into small groups and instruct them to create a short rhythm of 16-counts. First they should create this rhythm by clapping it out. 4. Once they ve clapped out the rhythm, instruct each group to decide how to use the tap steps they just learned to choreograph the rhythm. 5. Give them time to rehearse and then let each group perform for the class! REFLECTION QUESTIONS How did you work together to decide on your rhythms and choreography? Did any of the step or rhythm combinations performed by your classmates surprise you? Can you come up with your own unique tap step? What will you call your new tap step? 20
