Creative Powerhouse Behind the Scenes
Directed by Aggie Nyagari (Janjaruka) and Alex Konstantaras, the series is helmed by the award-winning duo Lizz Njagah and Alex, known for House of Lungula.
Alex leads the writing team alongside Yafesi Musioke, Serah Mwihaki (Single Kiasi), Rose Njoroge, Lily Wanjiku (Sue na Johnnie), Tony Koros (Tithes and Offerings), and George Salt.
“At its heart, Adam to Eve is about walking in someone else’s shoes. quite literally,” says Executive Producer Lizz Njagah. “It uses humor to challenge how we perceive gender and privilege.”
“We wanted to blend fantasy and comedy with socially resonant themes,” adds Alex. “The series is unapologetically funny, deeply Kenyan, and reflective of Africa’s evolving conversations around identity and equality.”
