Enqolobaneni Heritage and Arts want to revive the art of
storytelling while using Theatre as a medium.
The focus - in terms of location - is on peri-urban areas of
KwaZulu-Natal. The project aims at doing workshops for three days when artists
in those fields will be conducting and sharing information about their desired
field of industry. The workshops comprise acting, coordinating stage plays, script
writing and set building.
Enqolobaneni Heritage and Arts is looking for four community
theatre groups in around KZN to inform them about the project aligned to each
of their sectors. The project is about taking on already existing folktales and
making them into edutainment stage plays that will be viewed by the community.
Therefore there will be an audition for the stage play
allocated to that community. A rehearsal period of four weeks then a production
will be the result- which will be performed on the Saturday of the fourth week.
Enqolobaneni Heritage and Arts in conjunction with
Impucuzeko, a skills and training development production company, would like to
get into contact with theatre community groups that would like to gain from
this process.
Interested people should contact Lihle Dhlomo on 031 811
