In a genre that celebrates fun and festivities it's hard to create something that deals with political oppression and persecution,
but Fela manages to pull it off brilliantly. A feast for the eyes and ears, Fela deftly accomplishes what others on Broadway
had never been able to: tell a compelling story of great significance while treating audiences to a thrilling spectacle of
song and dance. The two seem almost incongruous, and maybe that's what makes Fela all the most exciting. Go for the drama,
stay for the music, because Fela will have you humming for days with a bounce in your step. Hurry over to StubHub to get your
Fela tickets today and witness this amazing show in
all its glory!
Just as the musical Fela succeeds in combining the drama of Broadway with the music of a dance hall, so too did the life
and music of its star character Fela Kuti. Kuti was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist musician and composer, a pioneer of Afrobeat
music and a human rights activist who campaigned against all the ills he saw plaguing his beloved country. His progressive
music was an innovative mingling of jazz, funk and African beats that acted as a powerful magnet for people looking to dance
in the nightclubs of Nigeria, and the lyrics to his songs acted as a call to arms and served as a catalyst for much of the
social unrest that came about as a result. Come see what all the buzz is about!
An incredibly moving and triumphant story of courage, passion and love of life and country, Fela is based on the life of
Fela Kuti, a Nigerian national hero. Kuti created Afrobeat, a blend of jazz, funk and African rhythm and harmonies, and he
mixed these sensuous eclectic rhythms with simple but powerful lyrics and employed them to boldly point a finger at Nigeria's
corrupt and oppressive dictatorships. Get your Fela theater
