CAPE Town’s Nico Malan theatre complex, named after a former administrator of the Cape Province, will be renamed, with the Western Cape provincial cabinet calling for proposals to be made in writing by June 9. The provincial cabinet has issued a set of guidelines for the new name. The name should be easily recognisable, it should encompass the province’s three official languages, be marketable to all people in the province, and most importantly, not be named after any person. An advertisement in Cape Town newspapers a;so said that the name should also “be marketable nationally and internationally” and “be non-partisan, by not favouring or alluding to any political party or cause”.
