John Ruganda (30 May 1941 to 8 December 2007) was Uganda's best known playwright. Beyond his work as a playwright, Ruganda was also a professor at University of North, South Africa, University of Nairobi, and Makerere University.[1]

Ruganda's plays "reflect the reality of the East African sociopolitical situation after independence."[2] He was considered a shaping force of East African theater.[3] The Burdens (1972) and The Floods (1980) have become a regular part of curriculum in Literature classes.[4]
