Respect

Rewind Fast Forward Event: Respect moderated by Dr. Njoki Ngumi, Mar. 15 2014 @ the Nest

Respect

What makes us hold some people in high regard – and what makes us deny others the same? How do we act towards those we honour – and what makes us decide whether to look up to people or not? Are all people worthy of respect?

The Nest’s second Rewind Fast Forward event explores the instinct, contention and actions behind how we decide to treat people, focusing on where they come from and what they do.

Join the forum theater moderator Dr. Njoki Ngumi and the cast of Maggie Karanja, Millicent Ogutu, Olwenya Maina and Sam Psenjen on Saturday 15th from 2pm – 5pm and have your say!

Synopsis

Doctor professes his love for one woman forcing other women to use unorthodox methods to win his love resulting in hilarious situations, complicated by mistaken identities. An evening of hysterical comedy! While FCA plays are very entertaining, they are also very educative and help prepare against the many challenges in life. In particular life issues such as relationships are mirrored on stage in a subtle and humorous rendition. The play “TEMPTATIONS” is an insight into societal problems of profound cultural and socioeconomic ramifications. Issues are cleverly tackled without being preachy.

Synopsis
A young aspiring actor from upcountry Kenya dreams of becoming an accomplished actor one day, and in pursuit of this and the chagrin of his brother and parents, he makes his way to Nairobi the city of opportunity. He quickly understands why Nairobi is nicknamed Nairrobery as he is robbed of all his money and belongings and left alone in a city where he doesn’t know a soul. Luck, or the lack of it, brings him face to face with the city’s criminals and forms a friendship with a small time crook who takes him in. He is quickly drawn into a world of crime as he struggles to pursue his dream of becoming an actor. Keeping the two worlds separate proves to be a challenge for him as he trudges on in this unknown world called Nairobi. This is the story of a young man who despite all odds trudges on in search of his dream. His drive and soft spoken nature are his best resources. His determination is encouraging and he is a true testament that what stands between us and our goals is us.
