== Department of Arts and Culture Drama Group ==
 
 
 
Founded in 1971 in response to a recommendation by the Theatre Committee of the [[Council for Culture, Sport and Recreation]] of the Ministry of Coloured Affairs, that prescribed literary works be dramatised and that the theatre arts be developed and promoted in Coloured Schools. In the initial period (1969-1970) the productions were done by the [[Performing Arts Councils]], but in 1971 the Department formed its own theatre company under the leadership of [[Limpie Basson]]. *** In 1981 the onus of the work shifted to local theatre Organisations in the provinces, e.g. the [[Eersterus Performing Arts Council]] (EPAC) in the Transvaal, Free State and Kimberley region, [[Youth Reach]] in the Cape and the [[Durban Theatre Workshop Company]] in Natal.
