Walter Lambert Muparutsa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Walter Lambert Muparutsa (23 March 1941 - 12 April 2012) was a Zimbabwean writer and pioneering theatre practitioner.[1]
Muparutsa grew up in the township of Mbare (then known as Harare) in the 1950s and 60s, where he developed his love for the arts. As an avid actor, he started Chiedza Drama Club, and was also active at the Anglican Young People's Association at St Michael's Church. His budding career in the arts was thus nurtured from these community institutions.
Education
He attended the famous St Augustine's Mission, Penhalonga before he got his first job as an editorial assistant at the Rhodesia Literature Bureau.
