When my class (Year Three Literature Students of Kyambogo University 2012-2015) was given the task to produce and perform Professor Austin Bukenya´s play, The Bride, it was like a dream.
We were venturing into the unknown, previous Literature Classes had not done African plays. Now here was the task. I had to get the piece, seek permission from Professor Bukenya of which i was granted and the daunting task of preparing my course mates, creating in them the characters in the play and Direct the production.
With cooperation and cutting the long story short, we made it, we really did it! It was amazing and for real, emotional on our side. You know, building a united cast from a class of people who have not been united in doing one thing as a team. This time it was about putting off all our differences and focusing on achieving one big dream, and not individually but as a team. It was an amazing performance and the second do, was a big Kill witnessed by Mwalimu Austin Bukenya in person.
Thanks to all, Mwalimu Bukenya is an amazing man, humble and friendly. Sir. Asante. Our very own, Rev. Dr. Sr. Nakiwala, God Bless You! and you the literature gurus, my Class of 2012-2015 (Evening Group). Thank you very good!
