The World Shakespeare Initiative Centre for Excellence (WSICE) has announced the top 10 finalists in an essay competition ahead of a planned mentorship session with acclaimed Nigerian playwright and Nobel laureate Professor Wole Soyinka.
Professor Soyinka is scheduled to mentor the finalists and lead an interactive question-and-answer session with them. The mentorship event represents a significant opportunity for the selected writers to engage directly with one of Africa's most distinguished literary figures.
The announcement of the finalists marks a milestone in what appears to be a broader initiative to foster literary excellence and provide emerging writers with access to established voices in the literary world.
