ASSITEJ SA in partnership with Drama for Life presents: The 12th Drama for Life Conference and Festival, ‘Masidlale: Exploring Connection’. 20-24 August 2020, which will happen mostly online.

ASSITEJ South Africa is collaborating with Drama for Life in hosting an exciting, innovative and relevant ‘conference and festival’ to explore the current Arts landscape right now in the time of COVID 19, with support from the National Lotteries Commission of South Africa for the In the Works festival elements.

In response to the global pandemic, Drama For Life (DFL) and ASSITEJ South Africa invite participants to a new play space for finding ourselves in the here and now, an intergenerational collaborative exploration with students, learners, children, artists, facilitators, young academics and DFL alumni and staff, where everyone is invited to share and be included with equity.

This explorative co-created space will be a research generating opportunity which will seek to capture the processes of young artists creating, connecting and making Art in this time. The space will give priority and focus to the youth, while showcasing their creativity with and for children and the wider community of South Africa.
