Theatre belongs to everyone.
Most of us remember the first time the lights went down and a story came alive. For thousands of Kenyans, that moment has never come. This November, we want to change that for 2,000 people.
Children in informal settlements
The theatre has always been too far and too costly.
Guests who are blind
No one has ever described the stage or offered touch tours.
Deaf audiences
The story has never been told in sign language.
Guests with mobility needs
The door was never built for them.
