- W3143175090 abstract "T he theatrical work presented at the 1966 Festival mondial des arts negres in Dakar (now commonly referred to as FESMAN) played a pivotal role in helping the event to navigate the political and artistic stakes of a new postcolonial era. Three works made up the Francophone theatrical programme: a production of La Tragedie du Roi Christophe , written by Martinican playwright Aime Cesaire and staged by French director Jean-Marie Serreau (Figure 11); La Mort de Guykafi , by the Gabonese writer and politician Paul de Vincent Nyonda; and Les Derniers Jours de Lat Dior , by Amadou Cisse Dia, then Senegalese Interior Minister. The programme included the same number of Anglophone works: Hannibal , by Ethiopian socialist writer Kebbede; The Savant , by Lady Diawara, wife of the Gambian Prime Minister; and The Passion Play , performed by the Panafrican Players of Great Britain. Also central to the event's theatrical line-up were the nightly performances of the Spectacle feerique on nearby Goree Island. This large-scale performance was billed as ‘deriv[ing] from the newest methods employed in live “Son et lumieres” entertainment’ ( Spectacle feerique 1966: 22) and presented a commemoration, through a series of tableaux, of the island's history, beginning with the sixteenth century, moving through the era of the slave trade, and ending with a celebration of Senegalese independence. Weaving the performance of text with multiple musical and dance interludes, each of the theatrical productions at FESMAN appealed to multivalent understandings of a new pan-African citizenship that included dialogical, visual and auditory forms of participation. The multidisciplinary approach of these works fits within the tenets of theâtre total , a term that in the French West African context had emerged to describe a work whose combined use of text, music and dance not only reflected a sense of dramaturgical balance but also evinced what could be considered an authentic familiarity with the repertoires of local folklore and tradition. Works of theâtre total were thus seen as representative of the customs and artistic practices of the population from which they hailed. Furthermore, they frequently echoed the ethnographic works of earlier anthropological writings that were coeval with this theatre's emergence in the colonial context." @default.
