The Beginnings

Kabaslot ‘N' Kotoku productions -- fondly referred to as Kabaslot -- is a voluntary theatre production company that was set up in 2001 by a group of veteran Sierra Leonean dramatists in the UK, who decided to pool their efforts to fill a void in the lives of the far too many Sierra Leoneans in the Diaspora who longed for a throwback to the days of the local homegrown entertainment they had enjoyed ever since they were toddlers back in Sierra Leone.

Among the key players in this project were:

• Dwight D. Short
• Clifford Shafume Garber
• Dennis Nelson Streeter
• Susan Blaudfaust
• Michael Vincent
• Rosemund Short
• Horace Lewis
• Ivan O'Brien Coker
• Usifu Jalloh

At present Kabaslot boasts a thirty (30) strong membership of diverse ages and experiences. Kabaslot membership is open. All you need to do is exhibit symptoms of enthusiasm and dedication to the arts and the search inside the ''Kotoku'' begins!
