A project proposal for the formation of People’s Theatre : a community drama project for the moral development and empowerment of the youth in Hout BayBastani, Nava Corinne 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil (School of Public Management and Planning))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007. / In the present chaos surrounding society, youth are in dire need of tools that will enable them to navigate life’s tests and help them understand their role in building a new world civilisation. It is not enough though merely to hear and profess grand ideals, action needs to accompany words. Action happens when ethics and spiritual principles are integrated at a deep level and become part of an individual’s character.
The following mini thesis is a project proposal for the formation of a Drama Workshop called People’s Theatre. People’s Theatre aims to help youth become of service to humanity through the internalization of morals and through the realization of their spiritual identity and their oneness with the entire human race.
The project proposal begins with an explanation of why the project is being implemented on a local level and where it fits in on a global level. The project utilises three component parts that are seen as necessary if the project is to be sustainable. There are dramatic, moral education and service component parts to the project. The dramatic component will focus particularly on the ZIPoPo method which has been chosen due to it being a powerful medium of expression as well as its focus on positive decision making and moral development.
Following this, the project proposal goes into detail concerning the necessary steps needed to be taken in order to practically implement the project and make it a success. The format follows a typical project proposal format. Another factor that was decided upon in order to help make the project more sustainable was that the project would be divided into three main phases. These phases are talked about throughout the proposal. There is also an analysis about why certain activities were chosen and how to take advantage of any opportunities that may arise and lead to the further success of the project.
Particular attention was paid to how to make the project truly sustainable and participatory and in this way enable it to succeed. Empowerment begins by teaching people how to walk their own path to development. The following project proposal provides a detailed plan on how to help youth to do just that.

Gemeenskapsgebaseerde teater : 'n Suid-Afrikaans georienteerde ondersoekBrand, Amelda 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MDram)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Creative expression is influenced by social structures and the political climate of the day.
Therefore theatre as a social structure has been directly influenced by colonialism and
apartheid. Restricting legislation had a limiting influence on cultural activities and
freedom of creative expression.
The following terms all refer to community based theatre activities: Community Theatre,
Popular Theatre, Theatre for Development, People's Theatre and sometimes Workshop
Theatre.
Community theatre in post-colonial African countries take place in locations easily
accessible to the communities it serves. These activities make use of creative techniques
that the target communities can identify with. The subject-matter is generally relevant
and is therefore accessible. The conscientisation- and mobilisation-potential of
community theatre become evident in post-colonial African countries. The uses of this
term in South Africa is closely connected with the above, but the applications in practice
are more diverse because of a longer period of Western influence.
Popular Theatre encapsulates theatre activities focussing on mass-appeal and popular
entertainment as well as theatre activities by and for marginalised communities. "Popular
Theatre" activities that take place within marginalised communities make use of
collective creative approaches that are aimed at community conscientisation and
mobilisation.
Like Community Theate and Popular Theatre, Theatre for Development is theatre for, by
and of the people (marginalised people, ordinary workers and the unemployed). Certain
Theatre for Development projects approach the target communities with pre-planned
agendas and creative subject-matter. Theatre for Development, like other community
based theatre forms, are aimed at conscientisation, mobilisation and organisation to
encourage political liberation and promote a higher standard ofliving. Workshop Theatre encourages people to express themselves by using a democratic and
collective creative approach. These characteristics are also present in the previously
mentioned theatre forms.
Community Theatre, Popular Theatre and Theatre for Development can all be categorised
as community based theatre and the terms are interchangable in pracitce. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Politieke omstandighede en daaglikse gebeure beïnvloed die keuse van
uitdrukkingsvorme. Kolonialisme en veral die apartheidsbeleid in Suid-Afrika het sosiale
strukture, waaronder teater, beïnvloed. Wetgewing en beperkte infrastruktuur het
kulturele aktiwiteite, kreatiewe uitdrukking en kulturele vloei beperk.
Gemeenskapsgebaseerde teateraktiwiteite in Suid-Afrika word meestal benoem met die
volgende terme: Gemeenskapsteater, Populêre Teater, Teater vir Ontwikkeling, "People's
Theatre", asook Werkswinkelteater wat in Suid-Afrika soms sosio-polities van aard is.
Gemeenskapsteater in post-koloniale Afrika-lande is ten opsigte van vorm en inhoud vir
die teikengemeenskap toeganklik en vind plaas in maklik bereikbare ruimtes. Die
bewusmakings- en mobiliseringspotensiaal van Gemeenskapsteater kom sterk na vore in
post-koloniale Afrika-lande. Die gebruike van die term "Gemeenskapsteater" in Suid-
Afrika sluit by bogenoemde aan, maar het ook meer diverse toepassings wat by
ontwikkelde lande se beskouings aansluit.
Populêre Teater ondervang teateraktiwiteite wat fokus op massa-aanhang, sowel as
teateraktiwiteite wat gemik is op gemarginaliseerdes. In laasgenoemde konteks is dit
gerig op bemagtiging en word 'n kollektiewe skeppingsproses gebruik.
Teater vir Ontwikkeling is soos Gemeenskapsteater en Populêre Teater, teater vir, deur en
van "die mense" (gemarginaliseerdes, massa gewone werkers en werkloses). Anders as
Gemeenskapsteater kan daar 'n voorafopgestelde agenda of gekose onderwerp wees.
Soos ander gemeenskapsgebaseerde teater strewe dit na bewusmaking, mobilisasie en
organisasie ter wille van bevryding en verhoogde lewensstandaarde in gemarginaliseerde
gemeenskappe. Werkswinkelteater het 'n demokratiese en kollektiewe skeppingsproses wat selfvertroue
en die vermoë tot uitdrukking aanmoedig. Dit is 'n eienskap wat ook teenwoordig is in
die voorafgenoemde teatervorme.
Teateraktiwiteite wat met die terme Gemeenskapsteater, Populêre Teater en Teater vir
Ontwikkeling benoem word, kan gekatagoriseer word as gemeenskapsgebaseerde teater
en is dikwels in die praktyk omruilbaar.
