Director Says Uganda Gay Play ‘Was Supposed To Be Funny’

“David Cecil, 34, faces two years in jail over a production of The River and the Mountain, … about a gay businessman killed by his employees.” He says, “We were warned, but since the play is not politically motivated, nor does it in any way promote homosexuality or criticise the government, we were not remotely worried. … It is a comedy drama, not an advocacy piece.”
