“Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.” – John W. Gardner
I have said this earlier – and would like to validate again – I am not a theatre person. This is a tag that has been given to me by others along with the much woolly label of being ‘multi-faceted’…whatever that means! Most expect me to break into a ‘song and dance’ on demand, whilst all I can do is to look at them and squirm with discomfort. Cursing them and then myself.
I have never thought of myself as a theatre person. I use theatre and drama as a medium of instruction – period!
So, what/who am I? At the risk of derisive sniggers, I would like to be known as a sensitizer and an educator. Who? What?
I would also like to be known as a wild-life person. What! Who?
