Theatre Craft is a type of dance which most Ballet or Jazz dancers should have something to do with during there years of dancing.
The dance is often a dance for exams existing of 2 to 4 people per examination group.Which goes up to grade 3.
There are three sections to Theatre Craft, Rythmical Development, Body Toning and Dance Composition. I do both Ballet and Jazz which is why I'm writing about it. But don't ask me my favourite because I just don't have one!

Echo

Every lunch time my friends and I play Echo.
It's an awesome game it gives you a great chance to practice throwing and catching.
You start off with even teams and you usually end up with the last man standing.
The game usually starts off with at least three people per team but numbers grow bigger as more people join.
Beginners will usually play a separate team to those who are experts.
How to Play.
Front people stand about seven metres apart. Throw a tennis ball to the other team, if somebody on the other team catches the ball they shout 'Echo' and roll the ball along the ground. As soon as somebody shouts 'Echo' everyone on the other team are not allowed to move. If the ball hits anybody on the other team they run as fast as they can to the other team while their original team tries to get them back by throwing the ball at them. If it hits them they stay on their original team.
