Story Zetu started back in 2011 as a blog where we posted our own stories and poetry. With time, it expanded to accommodate more writers from Kenya and beyond. We are currently a collective of young ambitious artists based in Nairobi, Kenya. The team is multidisciplinary and everyone is pursuing their own careers in theatre, TV, film, literature, music, advertising and so on.
We have collaborated on different projects such as Room C11, Jalada Africa’s Upright Revolution and the critically acclaimed We Won’t Forget which was staged at the Kampala International Theatre Festival in November 2015 and at the Ubumuntu Festival in Rwanda in July 2017.
Story Zetu is also the company that houses the popular theatrical Too Early For Birds– a series delving into stories from Kenya’s history.
