(19*-) Cape Town based playwright, short fiction writer, journalist and poet. An articulate, provocative and popular speaker on literary issues. Trained and working as a laboratory assistant, he was a member of the [[Belhar Amateur Drama]] and became founder of and writer/director for [[Unison Players]] from 1975. Was also involved with [[Group 44]] as founder(?*) and writer and worked with [[The Space Theatre]]. * Started out writing stories and poems, published in various journals. His collection of poems, collected as 'n Ordinary Mens ("An Ordinary person" - Kaaps or Cape Afrikaans) became widely read and discussed. Snyders is one of the best examples of writers in so-called Kaaps (i.e. the "Cape Afrikaans" of the Cape Flats) and uses it in his poetry and in many of his plays. These include ''[[Voor dit gebeur]]'' (1975), ''[[Lied vir Lisa]]'' ("Song for Lisa" , 1979), ''[[Political Joke]]'' (1979, pub. 1983). ''[[Elke Ou Storie]]'' (“Every old story” – co-written with [[Group 44]], 197*), ''[[Min Genade]]'' ("Little Mercy", 1983), ''[[Die Drein]]'' (197*). Has also written purely English plays, such as ''[[The birds and the boys]]'' (19*) and ''[[Violations]]'' (19*), ''[[The Final Sting of the Dying Wasp]]'' (co-written with [[Geraldine Aron]], [[Dermod Judge]], [[Russel Savadier]], and others, [[The Space]], 197*) **.
