The St Leonards Soap Opera Company
A creative initiative for the local community to engage in activities relating to drama and art and interactive media. The group meets fortnightly and have a showcase of their work and progression once a month. Social issues relating to all manners and forms of social deprivation, causes of social degradation and also social upliftment are discussed, unraveled and presented on stage and on video in a dramatic fashion. These events are presented in a venue every month where the general public is invited to. After each event, or episode, there is a discussion within the group and the general public about all issues presented and possible forthcoming scenarios. Everyone is welcome to participate in the group.
Each episode are shown on YouTube on The St Leonards Soap Opera Company’s channel to reach as big as possible audience as possible.
The crux of the matter is to make everyone look at themselves, look around themselves and at each other and finding ways to solve problems and everyday strife. There are pressing issues in society today that can be solved by powerful communication.
