Come to Kenya National Theatre this weekend for a stage show that tells the tale of our ancestors' love/hate relationship with twins that still continues to date.
In 1922, the healthy boy Mukhwana was born in the village of Mukhweya in Western Kenya. A few minutes later, his twin brother Mulongo followed. But they weren’t destined to live for long. After a few hours, Mukhwana and their mother had been killed to avoid the wrath of the curse of first-born twins and only Mulongo survived.
A tale based on true events, the story of Mulongo takes us on a journey of the dark fairy tales of Kenya’s cultural beliefs and colonial past.
Written and directed by Job Masika
Cast: Patrick Oketch, Mark Wabwire, Pax Washika, Wendy Jebet
