DRAMA CARTELS ARE KILLING THE DRAMA NATIONALS

-
The 58th edition of the National Drama Festivals  rounded up on the 16th of April 2017 in Kisumu County at Tom Mboya Labour College, Lions High School,Kisumu Boys and Kisumu Girls High School. With the little experience I have in Drama, I must say this years edition was the most boring of all and I blame the cartels that pin down the best items to pave way for their poorly choreographed items to proceed. To be specific, the plays performed this year were not captivating as they have always done. Most of the thespians in the Halls were disappointed by the items. For example, there was a stampede at the entrance just before Butere Girls performed their play. But surprisingly, most of the people in the hall got bored in the 10th Minute. Soon the Hall was filled with noise because the play was so boring. Many people were really disappointed with the performance. A message to the most experienced directors, please pave way for the upcoming directors for you have  run out of ideas. Wonderful plays and dances are left at the regional levels while the so called dorminant directors who happen to be in close contact with the adjudicators take their boring items to the nationsls. You are destroying the festivals guys .....LET THE UPCOMING DIRECTORS SHOWCASE THEIR TALENTS OR ELSE YOU ARE KILLING THIS INDUSTRY

QUARANTINED EPISODE ONE

-
"I think both of us need space!" Jane insisted. "For the last three months, things have not been the same for us, this thing isn't working. I thought I knew you, I convinced myself I love you and care so much about you, but I don't feel anything for you anymore." She continued as James, her boyfriend stared at her as many questions staggered in his mind.  "Why are you doing this to us?" He asked as crests of tears tried to bubble out of his eyes. But he suppressed them in. No,  African men do not cry. James was a true son of the African soil born and raised in Western Kenya. He looked at her, walked towards her with a royal smile, held Jane's hand and kissed her fallanjes. "If it's your wish for us to separate, I am sorry I cannot grant it. I love you so much and I am not ready to loose you." James said to Jane while holding her in his  magical chocolate brown smooth hands. Arms which no lady would resist to be engulfed i...

Perfectly Imperfect “Why do this to me? Why lie to me that Princess is my daughter?” James asked with his eyes soaked in tears. He turned to Andrew, “Andrew, you were supposed to be my brother. All along you knew I can’t sire a child and you took advantage of it and went ahead to sire one with my girlfriend. How vindictive can you be to stab me on my back?”  Andrew sat in his chair, holding the tourniquet in his right hand. His eyes were glued at Jane who at this time had no where to look but on the ground.  There was so much on her mind. She thought of going down on her knees to plead for forgiveness but that deliberation was cancelled by another one that whispered to her to remain silent and watch the two exchange words. “You know what guys, just continue what you were doing.” Said James as he went out. “Wait James!? Jane shouted. She did not want him to go. “I love you James, God knows I love you. I did not want to tell you about Princess because I knew she ...

QUARANTINED EPISODE TWO

QUARANTINED It was like a dream for James. He wanted to pinch himself to be sure this was not real. He moved closer to ensure that it was not 'Maria' the Kenyan soap opera he was watching, but no, it was real. He dropped the rose flowers, wiped his face in disbelief, and held his chest in pain. Jane and Brian were still staring at James. "Beb, who's this?" Asked Brian while holding tightly to the white duvet stripped with black lines. "Get out of my bed!" Commanded Jane. "You heard her, get out." Shouted Brian. Jane looked at Brian. "Not him, I meant you!" Said Jane in a low but harsh voice that only a calibrated fool would continue lying in that bed in the quest of acquiring the most fantasized title deed. "Why?" asked Brian. " I thought we shared something strong. That's why you gave me your extra key to your house. After all I have done for you, this is how you pay me back?" Acclaimed Brian but J...
