RE: Art As A Voice For The Silenced

in #art7 years ago

country that is characterized by a history of violence and the marginalization of a black person we find that black voices were always being silenced in many communities and as a solution this particular group of people within society moved towards finding a voice through various art forms such as through drama, ritual and performance. This essay analyses and compares the two South African plays called “Egoli” and “Hungry Earth” in terms of traditional performance elements such as dance, storytelling,mimicry, poetry as well as song and shows how these elements have been used in order to tell their stories as well as covers recurring issues or themes in South Africa . Thus a claim is made which postulates that these traditional performance elements have major effects on the thematic considerations of the texts.
