'4 Play' is a new Kenyan drama coming from the creators of 'Pepeta.' It follows four men who, despite their chaotic personal lives, find friendship, love and perseverance in Nairobi’s concrete jungle.
It stars Daniel Weke, AMVCA nominee Elsaphan Njora, Maina Wa Ndungu and Kalasha winner Bilal Wanjau as Malik, Allan, Edu, and Michael, the four main leads.
Supporting this cast is renowned media personality and content creator Patricia Kihoro, singer and actress Habida Moloney, and Tracy Macharia.
The late Charles Ouda serves as a writer and the casting director for the show.
It is produced by James Kombo and directed by Mwangi Rurengo, Janet Chumbe and Country Queen editor Mkaiwai Mwakaba, stepping into the director’s shoes for the first time.
Abigail Arunga, known for her work on Junior, Pepeta and Lies that Bind, serves as the head writer.
In a statement Mr. Kombo said “A lot of TV stories out there today focus on the woman’s perspective, and with 4 Play I wanted to show the other side of the story - the man’s story.“
Adding, "Thereby, capturing the challenges we face, and the things men are going through every day in Kenya. Having grown up in Nairobi, I also wanted to portray an authentic story through its nightlife, flashy lifestyle, love life - that is part of the Nairobi culture, and that is what this show represents.
The stories of our four leads are highly relatable because we are talking about real things men encounter to survive.”
Wrapped in humour, nightlife, and the quintessential grit of Nairobi, 4 Play promises viewers a bold, sexy, and real portrayal of contemporary Kenyan life.
The series dives into themes of friendship, family, ambition, love, and lust in equal measure, painting a vibrant picture of the highs and lows that define Nairobi.
