ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates the trajectory of Afrikaans cabaret within the transformative sociopolitical landscape of post-1994 South Africa. This study is anchored in the pivotal political transition of 1994 and examines the shifts in thematic content and cultural significance of Afrikaans cabaret. By conducting a comparative analysis of seminal works from both the pre- and post-1994 eras, the research delineates the ways in which the genre has adapted to South Africa’s new democratic context. The investigation is grounded in a qualitative methodology that integrates archival research, close textual analysis, and semi-structured interviews with prominent cabaret artists and writers. The key themes that are explored include identity politics, the manifestation of the outsider, and the enduring role of cabaret as a medium for social and political critique. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how Afrikaans cabaret has negotiated its role in a redefined sociopolitical milieu, highlighting its ongoing relevance and adaptability in reflecting and shaping public discourse in South Africa. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die trajek van Afrikaanse kabaret binne die transformerende sosio-politieke landskap van post-1994 Suid-Afrika. Hierdie studie is geanker in die deurslaggewende politieke oorgang van 1994 en ondersoek die verskuiwings in tematiese inhoud en kulturele betekenis van Afrikaanse kabaret. Deur ʼn vergelykende analise van invloedryke werke vanuit beide die voor- en na-1994 periodes uit te voer, bied hierdie navorsing ʼn uitbeelding van die maniere waarop die genre aangepas het by Suid-Afrika se nuwe demokratiese konteks. Die ondersoek is gegrond in ʼn kwalitatiewe metodologie wat argiefnavorsing, noukeurige tekstuele analise en semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude met vooraanstaande kabaretkunstenaars en -skrywers by mekaar inskakel. Die sleuteltemas wat ondersoek word, sluit identiteitspolitiek, die verskyning van die buitestaander en die blywende rol van kabaret as ʼn medium vir sosiale en politieke kritiek in. Hierdie studie dra by tot ʼn dieper insig van hoe Afrikaanse kabaret sy rol in ʼn herbepaalde sosio-politieke omgewing bewerkstellig het, en beklemtoon die genre se voortdurende toepaslikheid en sy aanpasbaarheid in sy rol om die openbare diskoers in Suid-Afrika te weerspieël en te vorm.
