Creative Directing As Deconstruction: An Examination of Bakare's Approach to Wale Ogunyemi's Langbodo

Abstract

The relevance of creative directing cannot be over-emphasized, as it finds new meanings to an author's play text. Unfortunately most dramatist view creative directing as a means of degrading their creative work. They believe that since they wrote the text, they understand its meaning better than anyone. This study seeks to correct that notion with the theoretical concept of Derrida's deconstruction, which is a textual analysis which scrutinizes the dramatist textual inferences deeper than it was constructed. I would be using Bakare's creative approach to Wale Ogunyemi's Langbodo.
