What a performance! What an experience!
‘KESHO AMAHORO,' a stirring musical set in Refugee camps during the Rwandan civil war, was a story of the active hope and resilience of children in the face of imposed chaos and the devastation of war.
A tough tale to tell- but done with amazing energy, talent, passion, and even humour - by all 60 of the young cast, and musicians. Being a Youth Theatre Kenya collaboration, the direction was bold and creative - physical theatre at its best. The performers were on spot throughout, and the atmosphere was electric. So many to thank for this experience- not least all the talented performers themselves. Makena, Lali, and Gabriel all brought us to tears, whilst Ian, Nia and Rashid and more had us all on the edge of our seats. Their performances were incredible; Watch this space ! 💫✨
With 3 whole year groups working on this together, they experienced the rewards of patience, hard work and meaningful collaboration- creating memories that will last a lifetime time.
The deep dive into the concept of displaced families comes at a particularly poignant time, and we only wish we could share the story with more!
Huge thanks to our sponsors , - for helping to make this possible, for all in our Kivukoni community. We truly appreciate the support. And lastly to our two key main directors- Manu Njenga 🤠and Lizzie Yago 🎭- Julius Watatua 🎶, and the rest of the dedicated Kivukoni team 🤩🤩🤩-Shukran!
More media will follow, but please enjoy snap shots of an experience of a lifetime.
And let us all keep actively hoping for ‘Kesho Amahoro’- more Peace Tomorrow 🕊️
