Mbeki Mwalimu has been a constant presence on the Nairobi theatre scene ever since she first arrived, fresh from Machakos and joined Mbalamwezi Players in 2004. Having been a star in her girls’ school’s drama club, she arrived in the “big city” with a well-oiled work ethic that supposed Nairobi casts would be as disciplined as her school productions had always been.

Sadly, that wasn’t what she found. So she happily followed one of the Players’ founders, Eliud Abuto once he launched Festival of Creative Arts (FCA) in 2007.
