This past week marked the kickoff of the 2024 Kenya International Theatre Festival (KITFest), an event that has cemented itself as one of Africa’s premier gatherings for theatrical expression and intercultural exchange.
Held in Nairobi, the festival brought together artists from 16 countries to share their unique perspectives and traditional narratives through theatre, dance, puppetry and the spoken word.
