Crazy. You know what’s crazy?

You are there, shut yourself within those walls, and a marvel goes by without you. Oh, and you know what’s crazier, you may never, never come out of this alive, even if you live to be a hundred, and yet you sup on the same thing every single day!

I know you must be wondering why there is an outburst from your favorite muse. But no, I’m not livid, not livid at all…. maybe a little bit sorry for not having been here sooner to tell you that, “THE GODS MUST BE KRAZY!”

“It is a comical discomfort,” is how Clare Wahome, CEO of Millaz Productions Kenya, describes it, their first production in Nairobi after an over 17-month hiatus.

Besides, last year, with a grant from the French embassy, the company of thespians, founded in 2017, produced the play, Ywak Nam, performed in Eldoret, Kisumu, and Homabay.

Now, what marvels?

Well, that’s what Millaz veterans are back on stage to immerse you in.

“Enough use of ‘culture shock as a refrain’, it’s time we grow to appreciate the differences between us,” Clare says.

Hear, not everything is a red flag; some of us prefer our coffee black, others with a drop of milk, and some not at all. This clause is about coffee, or you can as well let your imagination run wild, coz you’re a heart with a beat…

And not to mention the hoops one has to jump through in cross-community relationships.

Don’t even get me started on the intergenerational differences; 30 is the new 25, and advice is a cacophony of constant social media bombardment.

And who understands it better than those who are living it? The scholar, the artisan, the lawyer, the engineer, and the idiot sitting on their laurels… what if I told you that’s what makes Millaz the best in theatre?

Except, they are not sitting on their laurels; these thespians created a platform to grow and harness this beholden wreath.

And now, they bring us the Gods Must Be Krazy, on the 29th and 30th of this month, at the Kenya National Theatre!
