Defying censorship, three LGBTQ+ playwrights from Kenya and Uganda navigate acceptance and resistance as their plays are staged at the Criminal Queerness Festival in NYC. Through poignant excerpts of their works, the plays echo the injustice of their homelands' laws, shedding light on the pain inflicted by ostracization and discrimination. Speaking passionately to the audience after her play premieres at Lincoln Center, Achiro P. Olwoch reminds us that if we were in Uganda, everyone would be arrested. The cast, the crew, and everyone in the audience would be thrown in jail because we would be accused of ‘promoting homosexuality’.
