About this listen
In our first two episodes, we learn about translations of Shakespeare's plays into Kiswahili - a language spoken by more than 100 million people across eastern, central and southern Africa. Part one focuses on the background to the translations undertaken by Julius Nyerere: liberation hero, political philosopher and the first president of independent Tanzania. Director of the Tsikinya-Chaka Centre, Chris Thurman, introduces two experts on the subject: Kimani Njogu and Serena Talento. You'll also hear snippets from Kenyan theatre company Bitter Pill and from musical sensation Sho Madjozi!
