Description
It was banned for years and its authors, including the celebrated Ngugi wa Thiong'o, imprisoned, but after more than four decades, Kenya's most famous play is finally home. Although "Ngaahika Ndeenda" ("I Will Marry When I Want") occupies a special place on the Kenyan stage, the play's tumultuous history means it has not seen the light of day since 1977, when it was performed by peasants and factory workers in the central town of Limuru.
