Dr Zippy Okoth gave a mesmerising stand-up solo performance last Wednesday night at Kenya National Theatre that kept her full-house audience enthralled for no less than two and a half hours.
Mind you, most standup comedians can only keep their audiences engaged for an hour at best. But Zippy’s ‘Side-Chick Wife’ kept us riveted to our seats, disbelieving that she could speak so casually about sex and how it has been an essential element in her character’s life.
