Founded in 1975 by [[Peter Snyders]], it initially operated in Athlone and later moved to Mitchell's Plain. An amateur group consisting of full-time workers as well as students, their aim was to present people from everyday life, to give them a voice and to register political protest. They sought to bridge the socio-political divide between races and classes and conscientize people. They performed regularly and largely put on Afrikaans plays by written by Snyders.
