DanaiBlueDanai Gurira is not only the sword-swinging, ass-kicking Michonne on “The Walking Dead” — she’s also a playwright. In an interview with DuJour magazine, the 37-year-old actress talks about her second off-Broadway screenplay “Eclipsed.”

Starring actresses Lupita Nyong’o, Pascale Armand, Akosua Busia, Zainab Jah and Saycon Sengbloh, the play highlights five Liberian wives of a warlord and a Liberian peacemaker during the country’s civil war trying to define their identities among the widespread violence.

Gurira, who was born in America but raised in Zimbabwe, told the magazine that she was fascinated by an image she saw of women in the Liberia Civil War in 2003 and vowed to tell the story on stage one day.
