Abstract
This chapter provides creative industries as a sector of the economy that is largely dependent on audiences and in most cases, a shared experience in some form of intimacy. There is no art that does not require an audience – most activities in this space thrive on the energy of audiences. Consequently, our main focus in this chapter is to assess the impact of the restrictive measures around COVID-19 on the Creative Industries in Africa.
