Every platoon would organize themselves so that they can put up a good dance that depicts the theme for that year. The dance is usually judged based on similar criteria to that of the drama.

5. DRAMA

The drama competition is quite an interesting one where you watch Nigerian graduates trying to create intelligent scenes and also act them out. In each platoon, corps members are expected to write a play in line with the theme (usually on unity and development) of the orientation camp. When they must have concluded on what to present, they select actors to act it out.

In scoring platoons, the NYSC officials look at some key areas. Areas like: stage management, the story-line if it’s in line with the theme, level of creativity, voice projection, background sound management, costumes, and so on.
