TB - an ongoing BIG issue that is not talked about much....
Popular Education Programme (PEP) and 'Traditions of Popular Education research' invite you to a performance of
THE MASK
Let’s talk about TB!
The play tackles the issue of TB with questions such as
- How do you know whether you may have TB?
- How do you catch TB – and what should you do if you suspect infection?
- Why is there such a stigma attached to TB?
- How does the high rate of infection in poor areas exacerbate the stigma?
- What can we do about it?
- How do you cure TB?
The purpose of the play is to entertain and educate: it gives information and it challenges the audience to break the silence around TB.
Performances (in English and/or isiXhosa) last approximately 30 minutes. They are suitable for any audience. Each performance is followed by discussions to deepen understanding.
