Our discussion goes beyond the surface to explore the profound social and cultural impact of theatre and film in Uganda. We unravel the potential of these creative mediums as powerful tools for education, empowerment and expression. By breaking down stereotypes, we aim to celebrate the rich diversity and boundless creativity that characterises the theatre and film landscape in Uganda. Join us as we put the spotlight on the stage and showcase the multi-faceted importance of theatre and film in this vibrant African country.
