The Preservation And Promotion Of Traditional Dance And Music In Akwa Ibom State: Challenges And Opportunities Of Akata Theatre Troupe
type: item
description: Traditional dance and music performances are unique artistic expressions that are deeply rooted in the cultural foundation of a society. In a state as rich in cultural heritage as Akwa Ibom, traditional dance and music play an essential role in preserving the unique identity of the people. The preservation and promotion of traditional dances and music is an important aspect of cultural heritage conservation, as this art form provides a window into the history, customs, and values of a particular community. However, despite their importance, these dances and music often face challenges in terms of preservation and promotion.The Akata Cultural Troupe offers a powerful reminder that one's cultural traditions are not just remnants of the past, but living, breathing entities that must be nurtured, protected, and celebrated. The aim of this study is to expose the potentials and challenges of traditional dances/music in Akwa Ibom for socio-economic growth, cultural preservation and promotion through the activities and administration of the Akata Theatre Troupe. The research is ethnographic in nature which entails visiting the troupe and recording her activities and administrative modalities to draw our conclusion that the Akata Cultural Troupe's rich history and cultural significance extend beyond mere entertainment, influencing the social, economic, and cultural landscape of their community thus aiding the preservation and promotion of traditional values. This research recommends that State Governments should recognize traditional dances/music as an important component of education and cultural identity, preservation and promotion.

Semantic Extension and Re-duplication in Speeches of Selected Final Year Students of Akwa Ibom State University
type: item
description: This work sets out to study aspects of semantic extension and re-duplication in speeches of selected students of the Department of English, Akwa Ibom State University. The objective of this research is to identify some long-observed use of Semantic extensions and re-duplication in the student's use of English.The instrument used in collecting data was observation with voice recording from thirty final year students of the Department of English, Akwa Ibom State University, using Purposive Sampling Method to achieve the desired impacts. The study adopts Halliday’s Systemic Functional Grammar theory, as a framework for analysing the descriptive use of language without following the traditional grammar model which was Prescriptive. The findings revealed that semantic extensions and reduplication are mostly used by the Nigerian speakers to express themselves and show flexibility of the English Language in their immediate environment. Though semantic extension and re-duplication can be used in speech intentionally and unintentionally, the speaker may not know that thewords used express a different meaning. It concludes that semantic extension of a word or sentence occurs to shift away from the dictionary meaning and the repetition of words to create emphasis or to prove a point in a conversation without changing the original intention of the speakers.

Theatre Organisation And Facility Management In Nigeria
type: item
description: A theatre as an organization is composed of people, facilities and systems put in place to achieve specific objectives. The people, the facilities, and the systems interplay in order to achieve the given goal. The facilities are composed of buildings, infrastructure and support services. As a production system, it is subject to wear and tear apart from the fact that both facilities and the people respond to the dictates of life cycle. Most theatres in Nigeria are designed to the conventional Euro-American style and form with similarities in space arrangement, architectural form, physical orientation, placement, space locations and its facility management policy. Assessing these theatres, there is also a progressive decay in architectural structures, technical equipment and production infrastructure due to poor management and insufficient funding by the owners. This study is based on the Field and Environmental Psychology Theory (FEPT) propounded by Kurt Lewin, Contingency Approach (CA) propounded by Lawrence and Lorsch and Ludwig Von Bertalanffy’s Systems Theory (SA). The Field and Environmental Psychology Theory examine patterns of interaction between the individual and the total field, or environments while the Systems Theory and Contingency Approach, viewed organizations as complex systems of people, tasks and technology. They looked at interaction between people and their environment. The common goal in creating public assets is to have them serve effectively and as long as is physically possible. This requires that they be prevented from falling into decay and disrepair through appropriate management.

The Technical Concepts and Design Approach: A Study of Molinta Enendu's Production of 'Noah Built the Ark'
type: item
description: The theatre, like every human endeavour, is in a constant state of flux. It is in this regard that technical theatre practice, which encompasses lighting design, scenic design, costume and make-up, properties, sound and sound effects, is constantly evolving as theatre practitioners carry out experiments on innovative ways of communicating more effectively with the audience. Unfortunately, the efforts of many of such theatre practitioners receive scant scholarly attention in Nigeria. It is against this backdrop that this scholarly work, which adopts the qualitative research methodology, is an examination of the technical concept and approach of Molinta Enendu in the performance of 'Noah Built the Ark'. The study adopts Edward Gordon Craig's and Adolphe Appia's "Plasticity Theory" (PL) and Adolphe Appia's "Exploration of Aesthetic Scenery in Performances" as a theoretical anchor. The study reveals that the success of a good production is most times dependent on the creative ingenuity of a designer and the technique and style used to achieve its technical design concept. This study recommends that theatre practitioners should adopt the techniques of Molinta Enendu in scenic design in order to achieve more effective ways of communicating with the audience.

Stage Scenery And Lighting: A Study Of Molinta Enendu's Production Of The Raft
type: item
description: The theatre, like every human endeavour, is in a constant state of flux. It is in this regard that Technical Theatre, which encompasses lighting, scenic design, costume, make-up, properties, sound and sound effects, is constantly evolving as theatre practitioners carry out experiments on innovative ways of communicating more effectively with the audience. Unfortunately, the efforts of many of such theatre practitioners receive scant scholarly attention. It is against this backdrop that this scholarly work, which adopts the qualitative research methodology, is an examination on the aesthetics of stage scenery and lighting of Molinta Enendu in the production of The Raft. The study adopts Edward Gordon Craig's and Adolphe Appia's "Plasticity Theory" (PL) and Adolphe Appia's "Exploration of Aesthetic Scenery in Performances Theory". The work reveals that Enendu is the advocate of "Kinetic Scenery Technique". This theory involves the mechanical introduction or removal of scenery in the course of a play without the support of such visible human assistants as stage hands but relying on the "Super Fly Man" who manipulates the machines. This study observes that Enendu consciously uses lights to intensify the illusion of reality and to create a world of fantasy and therefore recommends that theatre practitioners should adopt the techniques of Molinta Enendu in lighting and scenic design in order to achieve more effective ways of communicating with the audience.

Lighting Beyond Illumination: The Creative Approach by Laide Nasir in the Performance of The Mammy Water’s Wedding
type: item
description: Lighting is an essential part of theatrical performance that makes other elements of theatrical production visible. It is a sensitive and delicate part of any theatrical performance, which has a great influence on the audience since it depicts the mood, interprets the theme, and also dictates the actions as well as the acting area. That is why this study in a bid to explore, gathered its sample data from a lighting designer in a university-based theatre, by documenting on his techniques and concepts as used in a dramatic production, in other to draw other theatre practitioners to his amazing phenomenon in stage lighting. Unfortunately, the efforts of many of these lighting designers in Nigeria receive scant scholarly research whereas; they play a major role in any theatrical production. However, there are also many inadequacies that still hinder the creative ingenuity of these lighting designers, which include funding, poor technical nfacilities, lighting equipment, and even the provision of new technology by the theatre owners. This study adopts the qualitative research methodology, which combines research principles using a formal form of data collection encompassing practical fieldwork, analytical and documentary methods. A purposive technique was used in selecting the designer and his performance in view. The study also adopts Edward Gordon Craig’s and Adolphe Appia’s “Plasticity Theory” (PL) and Adolphe Appia’s “Exploration of Aesthetic Scenery in Performances Theory”. The study reveals that Laide Nasir uses suggestive realism or surrealism as his performance style. And from findings, the study recommends that adequat lighting equipment should be provided for institutions where theatre is being taught, so that students who have interests in learning theatre design can be exposed to high level of technology while in school. And also, conscious efforts should be made by designers and theatre scholars to document on the scenic design and stage lighting concepts, t…

African Theatre And The Performance Space: Iboku Uruan Cultural Festival Of Akwa Ibom State In View
type: item
description: In the African society, the past have been kept alive for centuries through indigenous festival performances, which are peculiar to the people that celebrate it. Festivals represent the sociological desire of the people, social moral, historical and religious activities. This study is on the Iboku Uruan Cultural Festival as revived in the last three years. The Festival takes place at the Mbiaya Uruan in Uruan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. It is an annually celebrated festival that is conceptualized to promote the rich culture of the people in celebration of the Ekpe Society by its members. The Ekpe Society is an ancient Secret Society of the Cross River State and Uruan/Oron People of Akwa Ibom State, which is saddled with the responsibility for the administration and organisation of the community and society at large. Historically, the society has been involved in social justice issues, while using its powers and influence to promote fairness and equality within the community. Its responsibilities go beyond Governance, with its functions ranging from establishment/formulation of societal morals and the regulation and enforcement of those societal morals. The Iboku Uruan Festival, as an African Theatre is performed in a secluded performance space as created by the member of the Ekpe society. This area is considered to be the heart of the Ekpe festival and is permeated with spiritual powers and energy. The circular arrangement reflects the cyclical nature of the Ekpe society and its relationship to the natural world. The Ekpe participation in the festival serves as a link between the living community members and their ancestors, who are believed to be present in spirit during the festival.
