THEATRE AS A MEDIUM FOR ENHANCING OUR STANDARDS OF LIVING AND DYING: A DIRECTORIAL APPROACH TO BARCLAYS AYAKOROMA’S. A MATTER OF HONOUR.
Abstract
Book is an effective communication tool that can be used to achieve a variety of goals, including gender equality; it is a supplement to traditional media. Gender inequity is prevalent in society, and this exposes women to a great deal of discrimination, widening the gap between them and their male counterparts and, invariably, preventing women from participating and playing vital and supportive roles in society development.
The fight for gender equality and women’s liberation is being waged on multiple fronts, including books written in the form of drama, which is a formidable force and a social transformer; drama is a useful tool in national discourse and social commentary.
As a result, this study examined Barclays Ayakoroma’s play (book), Dance on the Grave, a drama that focuses on women’s agitation for a voice and equality in society with men. This research is based on the Muted Group Theory (MGT), and review and textual analyses were used as qualitative research methods to select and analyze the pressing gender issues raised in the play.
In conclusion, this paper argued that women have many potentials that can help society develop if they are not discriminated against, but that women must develop themselves in all aspects of life. It recommended, among other things, that women be protected from all forms of gender-based violence and that more books highlighting the societal ills against women be written.
