 ''[[Bitterbessie Dagbreek (How to Dance in Afrikaans)]]'' is an improvised [[physical theatre]] piece in seven scenes by students of the [[Stellenbosch Drama Department]].
 ==The original text==
 Created through improvisation and scripting sessions by the students, led by lecturers and directors [[Ilona Frege]] and [[Maulise Marais]], and later refined during the rehearsal period, the piece is an exploration in physical performance of the physical manifestation of the metaphoric and transcendental in human consciousness, with the angel metaphor as central image. It was developed as the University's entry for the annual [[Student Drama Festival]] in Grahamstown and was later also performed in Stellenbosch.
 The piece was first performed in 1996, but there is no formal playtext, only an outline performance text contained in a prompt copy found in the archives of the [[Stellenbosch Drama Department]].
