Athi freakers theatre is a group of talented youths based in Athi River town.
The group is composed of youths of different ages and with different talents.The aim of the group is to identify and nurture talents among the youths residing in Athi River.
They have a slogan, 'only the best,' and despite the many challenges the group is facing, they are striving to be the best theatre group in Mavoko and indeed the larger Machakos county.
When I visited them on Friday in their rehearsal hall which also houses their offices and a gym, I was impressed by the immense talent displayed by the youths.
Their offices are located in a storey building behind Athi River main municipal market.
They do plays, singing including choir, comedy, fine art like drawings, caricatures and poetry.
They have produced a movie called, 'Soma' available in Dvd. They also getting ready for a show in Kitengela on 15th of this month.
Are they the next big thing in the theatre industry?
"We just want to be the best," said Mary Mwihali, an actor with the group.
