Gathoni wa Wairura is the playwright - and/or co-developer - of a number of plays, namely:

BLINKERED - 2023

Co-written with and created by Wanjiku Victoria Seest.

BLINKERED is a performance-oriented, cross-disciplinary piece that invites you to examine and challenge your
biases towards Africa through an array of narratives. It breaks down the single story told about Africa. By way
of story sound, music, video and performance it suggests a humane alternative to the prevailing stereotypes.
Gathoni wa Wairura was also the dramaturg.

BLINKERED was produced as a part of Close Encounters / Embodied Journeys – a choreographic exhibition. It was performed at
the Den Frie Centre of Contemporary Arts in Copenhagen, produced by Dansehallerne and Connexions and curated by Julienne Doko.
