Pen
Mararo Wangai is a Kenyan-born independent artist (writer and actor), and media graduate with a passionate interest in diverse forms of storytelling. He was worked with Perth Festival, Melbourne Theatre Company, Black Swan Theatre Co, Belvoir Theatre Co, Yirra Yaakin Theatre Co and Centre for Stories.
His work strives to avoid simplistic narratives, assess society critically and tries to remain adaptive, organic and alive through its development, until the eventual encounter with an audience. He is attracted to stories that deal with the struggles of humanity, and creating work that not only tests his craft both in writing and performance but work that pushes him and his audience away from comfort zones, expectations and the mundane, into the nuanced unknown where we may all learn some deeper lesson for the next chapter.
