Mgma with 7Headco | kartiss_E | Qizv

MAGMA returns with a new exploration of the synergy between melodic and raw techno. This Halloween edition brings together sides of the genre that can feel worlds apart, finding common ground through rhythm, atmosphere, tension, and movement. Melodic elements unfold alongside raw, driving textures, allowing the night to move between depth and intensity without losing its underground pulse.A journey through contrast, connection, and the space where melody meets raw energy.

30th & 31st October 2026
Kenya National Theatre
Funny Thing About Love

FUNNY THING ABOUT LOVE follows Body, a successful and independent woman, who is seemingly in a loving relationship with Alan, who slowly becomes controlling and manipulative. As care turns into possession, and passion turns to control, Body begins to lose her sense of self. The play explores the hidden dynamics of emotional and physical abuse and the cost of love that seeks to control rather than support.
