Lupita Nyong’o is the most successful Kenyan actress in Hollywood. Her success has inspired many thespians in Kenya who dream of emulating her feat.

Most successful thespians in the country started out at the Kenya National Theatre. This will however change if the project by Kisumu governor Anyang’ Nyong’o sees the light of the day.

Kisumu county government is planning to build a state-of-the-art theatre and arts centre. The mega project aims at tapping into raw talents and encourage creativity of young people.

Nyong’o having seen her daughter became a global star through talent wants to empower his constituents. The county government says funding for the project has been secured but some processes are yet to be completed.
