History
It was founded on 2 September 1902, with its campus in Rissik Street, Sunnyside, Pretoria. Initially an English institution, it became an Afrikaans college in 1933. At the time all teachers took a three-year course leading to a Teacher's Diploma, but in 1937 a four year course was also introduced, to serve as a combined Unviersity and College qualification.
Contribution to SA theatre, film, media and/or performance
The college is important in the history of theatre in South Africa on a number of counts, notably for the many theatre practitioners who studied there, its courses in drama (as well as drama teaching, theatre and drama in education, etc.) and because it became the de facto managers of the Kleinteater ("The Little Theatre") in Pretoria.
