Can theatre change the world?
That’s the question we explored in Theatre for Change, a course I teach at Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington.
Our third-year students studied how theatre can provide people with hope and healing, researched the benefits of theatre programmes in prisons and how drama therapy can support mental health, and created a theatre-in-education workshop that they took to a local high school.
Our students will tell you from experience: theatre changes lives.
Change is coming to Vic’s theatre programme – change for the worse.
Our programme is one of many being slashed as part of a desperate proposal to get Vic out of a $30 million hole. The theatre programme will be cut by more than half – our team of 10 shrinking to 4 full time roles (3 academics, 1 technician) and folded into a reduced English Literatures and Creative Communication programme.
This will wind the clock back to 2000 - the last time Vic theatre had a staff of this size. Back then, we had no first-year courses, nothing for postgraduates. We now have a dynamic range of courses at all levels and our MFA postgrads regularly work alongside industry professionals.
All of this is at risk – the cuts will undo over 20 years of growth overnight.
The impending destruction of Vic’s theatre programme as we know it is the latest sad chapter in a tale of cuts that have critically weakened tertiary performing arts education in New Zealand.
Our graduates include Taika Waititi, Erik Thompson, Simon Bennett, Tandi Wright and Eleanor Bishop - and we have a proud history of theatre companies like Binge Culture, Trick of the Light, and Red Scare emerging from our programme.
But you’ll also find our theatre graduates everywhere – law, education, media, NGOs - even the UN. Theatre students become expert in collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, communication - transferrable skills required to navigate the uncertainties of work in the 21st Century.
Theatre isn’t losing money at Vic, we’re just not making enough to satisfy the decision makers. Nor is there any shortage of students who want to study theatre – the fact our numbers are only down a nudge through the pandemic should be cause for celebration.
