The Drama Department of the University of Pretoria was established in 1965 under the direction of Prof. Geoff Cronjè. The department set out to train theatre practitioners that can make a contribution to the rapidly developing theatre industry of the time. The department further aimed to promote Afrikaans theatre. The alumni of the department, their work in the theatre industry and fields related to theatre, as well as the contributions of staff and students in the academic arena stood, and still stands, as testimony to the department's commitment to excellence.
