Guest name: VITUS DUNU
In studio interview

Vitus Dunu is a bold and electric performer whose craft lives in his ability to switch worlds in a heartbeat. In Barber Shop Chronicles, he travels the continent through four characters — each delivered with his signature mix of heart, humour and sharp storytelling.

He brings:
• Wallace (Lagos) – loud, lively and impossible to ignore
• Mohammed (London) – calm, steady and quietly commanding
• Timothy (Ghana) – full of charm, jokes and warmth
• Tinashe (Zimbabwe) – emotional, sincere and deeply rooted

Whether he’s cracking a line that lands the whole room or shifting into a moment that hits straight in the chest, Vitus anchors the ensemble with presence, versatility, and a distinctly African pulse.
