The Word
What TheySay
“I have had the pleasure of working with Vivian Nyawira both in class and on set. She was part of my 3rd Screen Acting & Casting Masterclass, where she stood out for her confidence, openness, energy, and eagerness to learn. I first cast Vivian as one of the leads on Lazizi, and I have since cast her again on Enkop. She is a joy to work with, has a great personality, takes direction well, and brings warmth, discipline, and commitment to her work. Vivian is teachable, professional, and full of potential, and I look forward to seeing her continue growing in the industry.”
