Evidence that Kenyan women playwrights and screenwriters are coming out in full force has been most apparent in recent times.

And not only with Zippy Okoth’s original script, Stranger in my Bed, which she staged last weekend at PAWA254 or with Mbeki Mwalimu’s recent co-authoring of Stranger by Blood, which she collaborated on with Justin Miriichi a few days before. (Incidentally, Mbeki is directing Mutual Misery this weekend, opening tonight at Alliance Francaise, starring Melvin Alusa and Mary Mwikali.)
