Theatre development in Sierra Leone

Description:: This paper discusses the role of theatre in development. It starts off by summarizing the history of theatre in Sierra Leone. Then it gives a fairly detailed account of the activities of CARE's LEARN project in which theatre techniques were employed to create the necessary awareness for development among Sierra Leonians. It admits that though the approach used by LEARN in this project was not more truly participatory, it achieved noteworthy success in the areas of nutrition, sanitation and maternal childhealth care.
