Questions:
Activities:Music /English: Create your own song or poem about the circus. Art and Design: Create your own circus show and design the poster. Think about the various acts you will have. Media Studies: Take out the soundtrack and replace the images with different (perhaps negative) perspectives of the circus. English: Compare with other representations of the circus (art work, Angela Carter stories, Dumbo). Modern Studies: Research why the circus is less popular than it used to be (especially ethical issues, animal rights). How have circuses adapted to this and what different kinds of acts might you expect to see today? Music: What makes the song so 'catchy' (look at chord structures, bass lines, key changes). Social History / ICT: Research the Robert Brothers Circus and write an essay or illustrated presentation with your findings.
