Theatre: A Cultural Tool for the Propagation of Peace in AfricaEbewo, P 01 January 2009 (has links)
Abstract
In many parts of the world, theatre has been used to educate, socialise, indoctrinate and raise
consciousness. In contemporary Africa, theatre practitioners have lamented the fragmentation of
human life and the erosion of peace as a result of human rights abuses, income inequality, poverty,
lack of access to services, crime and wars. The aim of this paper is to examine how African theatre
practitioners have used theatre as a cultural tool to create awareness and educate their audiences
about the need for peaceful co-existence in their communities. The discussions examine selected
plays and applied theatre projects from West and southern Africa. They conclude in the finding
that the applied theatre form is more effective than conventional literary theatre in promoting peace
education and local development initiatives in Africa.
