Kenyan playwrights have apparently taken up the habit of naming their plays with mystifying titles, like “I am not a Simp: I respect women.’
Under his breath, I think I heard that phrase uttered by the rapist in the play, Pastor Zebede (Evans Katana) who was Prof Zebedayo when he assaulted his student Stephanie (Cheryl Margie) whom we learn towards the play’s end, is also her father, having raped her mother before her. Nonetheless, it’s never clearly revealed what a ‘simp’ is.
