Louise met Dr. Doho at the annual African Studies Association meeting where she presented her research on social theater in Mali and South Africa. Doho approached Louise and told her he was doing the same thing in his home country, Cameroon. Dr. Doho arrived in Marquette on the 25th. This is Dr. Doho's baby. To understand what theater for social change is, you must understand the culture it belongs to, something Dr. Bourgault explained.
Performance is part African life.
An ethno-musicologist friend of mine has a book about how Africans are always making music. For example, in the post office where they still cancel letters by hand, they do it rhythmically. If there is a traffic jam, Africans will start honking their horns and they start honking in rhythm. Performance is life. The first very important point is that Africans have always used performance for socializing people.
