The Girinya Dance Theatre of The Tiv People of Nigeria : an Aesthetic Evaluation
Jacob Manase Agaku 국립민속박물관 2008 International Journal of Intangible Heritage Vol.3 No.-
‘Residual theatre’ is used to refer to mean ritualperformances that are still enacted but which have losttheir original purpose. Such performances can still beenjoyed and can still play a role in promoting socialcohesion and a sense of identity, so long as the performers,and the audience, recognise and accept the way they havechanged. The Girinya dance of the Tiv people of Nogeria,which was originally a war dance, is a case in point. In theTiv dance aesthetic, men’s dances should be vigorous andenergetic, as the Girinya dance is, but whereas in the pastthe dance was about the way warriors should behave inbattle, it is now about continuity and renewal. I have tried todescribe and evaluate this aesthetic and the way it hasbeen adapted to have a new meaning within the changingculture of the Tiv people.
