Uganda mourns playwright Alex Mukulu, called an artistic titan
Tributes are in for the thespian whose work ran from the early years of modern Ugandan theatre to the international stage.
Tributes are in for playwright and thespian Alex Mukulu, described in public coverage as an artistic titan. His career stretched from the formative years of modern Ugandan theatre to major cultural events beyond the country. Kigezi has always sent students, teachers and theatre groups through that same national stage. When a writer who made audiences think beyond the joke is gone, the arts desks in Kabale feel it too. Joy FM will carry a listener memory if you have one.
