The collection contains documents relating to the activities of the Johannesburg Civic Theatre for the period of 1962 to 2017. The records include historical information about the theatre and its development over the years, programmes of theatre productions and details of the performances, posters, newspaper clippings and photographs.
The interviews were facilitated and carried out by the Robert Sobukwe Trust and the Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe Museum & Learning Centre, as well as the Wits History workshop, University of the Witwatersrand.
Most of the interviews relate to the history around Graaff-Reinet. However, all of the interviews under "Sobukwe and PAC" relate to topics over and above local history.
