‘The dominant theme in South African theatre over the last ten years seems to be the legacy of the TRC, which uncovered more in the way of truth than it accomplished in reconciliation. Yael Farber’s MoLoRa, Lara Foot Newton’s Reach, Sindiwe Magona’s Mother to Mother, REwind: A Cantata by composer Philip Miller, and Truth in Translation by director Michael Lessac, all explored forgiveness.’
2008 also marks the ten year anniversary of the publication of the play Ubu and the Truth Commission.
[has their been a similar trend in the Rwandan theatre, or other areas faced with reconciliation?]
