Theatre for development Based on the idea that theatre is a means for development I explore the possibilities of using artistic expression as a way to open up discussion and debate.
Through artistic expression: knowledge, ideas and values can be shared and put in perspective.
Apart from being highly entertaining and bringing people from all realms of life together, theatre has the potential to enrich people's life.
Theatre for development offers everybody who is willing to learn methods and oppurtunities to share and discuss any social and/or economical problems that surrounds them.
