South African Theatre/Personalities

Click on the appropriate letter of the alphabet below to obtain an alphabetical listing of links to entries on personalities in the encyclopaedia. To search the whole encyclopaedia for other occurrences of an item or term, you may also use the Search function in the upper right corner of the page.

Please note that - in this list - personalities are listed alphabetically here according to their last name (surname). This is done in accordance with traditional bibliographic practice, to simplify manual searches. However, the links in the various entries give personalities in the normal order (first name, surname/last name) Thus for example the South African playwright's name would appear as Athol Fugard in an entry about his play Boesman and Lena (or an entry about the Market Theatre), but is listed here under F as Fugard, Athol (and also in the section entitled Bibliography on South African Theatre). However, this too may be clicked on as a link to the entry on Fugard.

Please also note: Surnames (or last names) consisting of two or three words (e.g. double-barreled names such as "Hilton-Smith" or names preceded by De, Du, Le, Van, Von, etc) appear under the first word in this listing. Thus the Afrikaans actor Gert van den Bergh would be listed under "V" as Van den Bergh, Gert and the playwright P.G. du Plessis would be listed under "D" as Du Plessis, P.G..
