One of the reasons why theatre is unpopular in modern Africa is that it

Theatre in the recent past used to be a very popular art
in traditional African society. It used to be a point ofintersection where members of the community not only come to entertain themselves, but join heads together. In the traditional context African drama therefore, Theatre was a popular and respectable institution, which preserved the people's culture and tradition.

Theatre was popular with the people because it emphasized community participation, peace and progress. The presentations focused on the people's lives, their aspirations, fears and hopes.

But today, the situation is different. Theatre is becoming very unpopular. Africa of the present age is pre-occupied with many problems yearning for immediate solutions. The continent is facing hydra-headed challenges --- challenges on the political, social and economic scenes. In a world where science and
technology are seen as the solutions to these problems, little attention is paid to the arts. Literature generally, and drama in particular, is often rated very low on the utility scale.

Many in Africa today look at drama and theatre as a mere thing of fun, a
joke so to say. Elitism is another barrier that militates against the appreciation of theatre as a communal art. Folk theatre is appreciated by a negligible number of people. Contemporary
focusis on literary theatre. Unfortunately. Literary theatre only
pretendsto serve the interest of its societywhile in reality it has
a foreign audience in mind. The use of Europeans and American
theatrical conventions by our academic playwrights can bear
witness to this anomaly.

The popularity of the literary African theatre is further
marred bythe medium of communication as most literarydramas
in Africa are written in foreign languages, which are not
understood by many Africans. The question often asked is
whether the artist should climb down to the level of his
community or stay at his exalted height and wait for the
community to gradually move up to him.
