About
A piece that blends personal narrative, protest, history, and live reenactments to tell the story of Agnes Tirop, a Kenyan athlete whose life was tragically cut short by femicide. The production exposes the systemic violence faced by women, the failures of justice, and the cultural silence surrounding femicide. As femicide continues to claim lives in Kenya and beyond, the piece functions as a living archive, a site of protest, and a space for collective reckoning.
