A report back on Sanata's first year of activities will be presented, a new national and Gauteng executive will be elected and there will be a showcase of The Monaco Experience - ten glorious days spent at the Festival du Mondial - International World Festival by some of the cast members.

In addition, there is a motion on the Agenda to change the name of Sanata to SANCTA (SA National Community Theatre association) in line with the latest trends and to emphasise the organisation’s inclusiveness as a national body.
