What is a good sister duet lyrical song to dance to?
Iris - Goo goo dolls
This one is my favourite lyrical song by far...
I searched this once and
Boheimian Rhapsody - Queen
came up.
I think it would be better for more of a contempary, but maybe you could.
Also, Defying Gravity - Kerry Ellis
I think the trick is to listen to as many songs as possible, and find the one that relates to you the best. It depends what style of lyrical you intend to do, and if you want a song that builds, a song that stays slow, one with strong lyrics, or one that just speaks to you.
If you want a song with a good beat,
Sweet Dreams - Beyonce is good, too.

Why is movement important to drama?
Movement is important in drama because, like in real life, movement is just as important as words, when it comes to communication- in fact, 95% of communication is non-verbal.

Movement can be described as the act or an instance of moving; a change in place or position. In theatre, it becomes especially essential, because when half of your audience are sitting quite far away from you, they find it difficult to know what you are saying from your speech alone, so you have to communicate using body language.
