Phoenix Players presents: Wife after death- by Eric Chappell directed by Millicent Ogutu.
(Premiering this Friday 12th August, playing until Saturday 27th August 2011)
Comedian and national treasure Dave Thursby has died, and on the day of his funeral, friends and colleagues gather beside his coffin to pay their last respects. There’s Harvey (Sam Psenjen), who wrote Dave’s material; VI, Harvey’s wife (Margret Karanja); Kevin (Harry Ebale), Dave’s agent, and Kevin’s wife Jane (Karimi Njagi). Dave’s glamorous young widow Laura (Angela Mwandanda) has arranged a funeral to remember, complete with a horse-drawn hearse and an attendant dog. An unfamiliar woman who has turned up in flamboyant mourning clothes turns out to be Kay(Carol Irungu), Dave’s ex-wife from before he was famous, and a series of revelations about his dubious past and recent philandering end with Kevin throwing a drink into the coffin and all the guests asking themselves if they ever knew the “real” Dave.
