ZIMBABWE REVIEWS
Kuphi Maqonda is a student from Midlands State University and reports:

“What keeps GTC going is its bottom-top management. The people in the production department or rehearsal room are considered knowledgeable and the backbone of the business. The top comes in with assignments and support with the provision of any deficiencies or inadequacies that often arise with different productions.

One fascinating aspect about GTC’s approach to work is its emphasis on individual creativity, which is later translated into collective effort. Individual performances and ideas are presented to other members of the group for analysis and improvement. The final product, therefore, is never an individual effort, but a collection and synthesis of ideas coming from the whole production team.”
