Theatre and the Education Reforms in Nigeria.
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
In the present political dispensation, efforts have been made to effect reforms in the education of the country. Many moves have been made to put this in place. For these efforts not to be frustrated, we believe that the performing theatre too needs to be reformed-most especially films and home videos. These duo have gone a long way in influencing the academic performance of the Nigeria students. This is because they have succeeded in gaining the attention of the students more than any other forms of entertainment. In this study, we have examined three sub-headings: The roles of performing theatre to the society, the degeneracy in the film industry, performing theatre as a viable instrument for the education reforms. In the study, we have presented some ways through which the industry can be used in influencing the education reforms positively.
