Ethiopia Cancelled

It’s a pain when a promise gets retracted.  I received the  news only days  after Ethiopian Television announced  that my  play, Something Dark,  would be performed in Addis in September that the British Council,  who've  been in negotiations with my creative producer, have  cancelled.But it’s incumbent on me to apologize to all those who were expecting to see my play  in Addis in September.  It may seem that one door opens as another closes but after a momentous visit to Ethiopia in March  organised by  The British Council  I am still reeling at the cancellation. I'll be performing in Nairobi, Kenya in September. The information will be in the sidebar at  http://www. lemnsissay.com on September 1st. Nairobi is less than two hours from Addis.
