The curtains closed on three shows a week ago bearing similar themes of memory, identity, resistance, and legacy.

At the Jain Bhavan theatre, Hive of Arts re-enacted, as promised, prof Kithaka wa Mberia’s Kifo Kisimani. This effort was realised following a teaser posted on X by creative Bryan Ngartia in April, asking whether audiences were interested in the book coming alive on stage. The response was in favour, and Hive of Arts kept their bargain.
