Your Chance to Check Out 5 Star Play Before It Goes On Indian Tour

The Swahili treatment of the classic Shakespeare play, Merry Wives of Windsor was well received at the Globe to Globe Shakespeare Festival in London this April 2012 and received 5 stars from the Guardian Newspaper’s Andrew Gilchrist who said it was “Visually intoxicating” and “slapstick…tinged with genius”.

The show is now set to go on an Indian tour between the 5th November to 18th November 2012. And before the production travels, The Theatre Company has organized a pre-India tour show at the Kenya National Theatre Ukumbi Mdogo this coming Sunday, on the 4th of November.

The production represents the best of East African talent which we will showcase on tour in India. The cast features the gigantic talent from Tanzania, Mrisho Mpoto as Falstaff as well as Mourad Sadat, Joshua Ogutu, Neville Misati, Veronica Waceke, Sylvia Namusassi, Kitt Nyang’aya and Eric Wanyama.

Tickets are going for Kshs. 300 and Kshs. 100 for The Theatre Company registered members. Check out clips from the show below.
