Maya Angelou was prescient when she wrote the iconic poem Phenomenal Woman in the late seventies. Last weekend at Kenya National Theatre, I saw so many phenomenal women on stage acting and assisting as crew in The Brazen Edition of (the theatre troupe) Too Early for Birds that I thought I’d died and gone to heaven!
Seriously, I have never seen a production that was totally owned, operated, conceived, enacted and embellished all by Kenyan women. (Even men were played by women!)
