dc.description.abstractTwenty five centuries after the first theatre was built in Athens,patronage of the theatre as a live art is still very unecouraging low compared with its counterparts the television and the cinema which are more recent in innovations. Urbanization is leading us to a gradual drift from the live theatre to the cinema and television. Concerted efforts are being made the world over the to improve the situation towards a better patronage of the live theatre. What then is the place of architecture in this crusade for the theatre as a live art? The aim of this thesis is to examine the existing trends of theatre arts and to offer suggestions, architectural in nature, towards improving this rather unencouraging attitude towards the live theatre, particularly in Africa where theatre architecture is still at its formative years. This accompanying write up is in three parts: Part I: THEATRE GENERAL: Past, present and future. Part II: Theatre Architecture: existing forms, basic requirements. Part III: THE SCHEME; Objectives, limitations, conceptualisation and conclusions. The festival complex, A.B.U. Zaria is proposed as a theatre laboratory to evolve and develop the much sought after Idiom of African theatre. It shall serve as an Information Bank to collect and disseminate information through the system of precept and example.en_US
