"Elder’s Classroom" Premieres on Pearl Magic Prime

Get ready to laugh your way through Friday nights! DStv Uganda is excited to announce the launch of its newest comedy sensation, Elder’s Classroom, premiering on Pearl Magic Prime. This fresh, hilarious series promises endless entertainment and is set to become a fan favourite.

Replacing Hotel Mara in the coveted Friday night slot, Elder’s Classroom follows the heartwarming yet laugh-out-loud journey of Mzee Balikuddembe, a generous elder who opens his home to Sekimpi, the son of his late best friend. Eager to carry on his father’s legacy, Sekimpi turns Mzee’s house into a school for the elderly and underprivileged. However, what starts as a noble mission soon spirals into comedic chaos, thanks to Sekimpi’s history of gambling debts—ensuring unpredictable, side-splitting moments throughout!

The show’s talented cast features the unforgettable Mr. Dodo, portrayed by the late comedy legend Kato Lubwama in a special posthumous appearance, adding an emotional and nostalgic touch for Ugandan viewers. The series, directed by Saabwe Conrad Lubwama, Kato Lubwama’s son, is not only a tribute to his father’s legacy but also a fresh take on Ugandan comedy. With a cast that includes seasoned actors like Ssemakula Magombe and Ronald Sekimpi, this show promises endless laughs and heartfelt moments.

Producer Saabwe Conrad Lubwama expressed his gratitude for the platform to showcase his team’s creativity: “This show, with its unique blend of humor and life lessons, highlights the talent of Uganda’s young filmmakers and introduces new storytelling styles to our audience.”

Margaret Mathore, Channel Head at M-Net Kenya, emphasized the channel’s dedication to high-quality local productions: “Elder’s Classroom is a reflection of our commitment to bringing top-tier Ugandan content to the screen. We encourage all local filmmakers to seize opportunities to showcase their talents.”
