(e.g Theatre Workshop ’71, *** ). it is a concept introduced into the South African scene via the American ''avant garde'' movements of the 1960’s and 1970’s, but came to real prominence as an alternative creative form in the 1970-1980 struggle period among writers in English, gradully becoming the dominant form of play creation, really ousting the traditional playwright as dominant creative figure in the local industry. After 1994 this postion has slipped a little. ****
