The UK Rock Challenge is the British arm of the Global Rock Challenge. The Rock Challenge is an anti-drug and crime-prevention that takes the form of a friendly performing arts competition for schools and colleges. Originating in Australia in the 1980s, it reached UK shores due to Inspector Mark Pontin of the Hampshire Constabulary visiting the country 1995: being so impressed by the event Inspector Martin persuaded the Chief Constable of Hampshire Constabulary to introduce it into their area of the UK. The first UK event took place in Portsmouth Guildhall, Portsmouth in 1996 involving 11 schools and around 750 young people; since then, Rock Challenge has expanded into many areas across the UK; in 2013 45 events are planned. All the events in the UK are funded by the Be Your Best Foundation (Registered Charity Number 1077291〔http://www.charity-commission.gov.uk/Showcharity/RegisterOfCharities/CharityWithPartB.aspx?RegisteredCharityNumber=1077291&SubsidiaryNumber=0〕), a non-profit charity set up by the creators of the Rock Challenge in the UK who source funding for the events across the UK.' ==The Event== The premise of the Rock Challenge is that each school puts together an 8-minute dance and drama production on a theme of their choice set to a soundtrack of commercially available music. Over the course of months/weeks schools create their production and finally bring it to an event day held at a professional venue where they spend the day rehearsing and preparing for an evening show where parents, peers, community members, and invited guests attend. During the evening, a panel of judges give verbal feedback on each performance and also scores each piece based on strict criteria. Performances are judged on: Performance Judge Marks: * Choreography (out of 10) * Performance Skill (out of 10) * Soundtrack (out of 10) Production Judge Marks: * Hair and Make-up (out of 10) * Costume (out of 10) * Lighting (out of 10) Drama and Design Judge Marks: * Drama (out of 10) * Set Design and Function (out of 10) * Concept (out of 10) Each judge also gives the performance a mark for 'Overall Impact' out of 5. At the end of the evening a prize ceremony is held where a number of awards are presented along with the announcement of the top-scoring schools. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「UK Rock Challenge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
