Published by

“Nostalgic fever” are the words that describe the relative comportment of guests at the recently concluded Fela! The Concert Lagos.

Held at the prestigious Eko Hotels and Suites, the two-day annual concert in memory of legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti was thronged by Afro-beats enthusiasts and lovers, influencers and celebrities from around the country.

Guests were decorated with Fela!-inspired designs on entrance by Zaron Cosmetics, a craftwork which will bring out the Fela in them during the show.

As it was the night of unalloyed Fela! entertainment, the dance performances and musical renditions were re-enactment of the spirit of the Afro beats and provoked a lot of call and response from the audience in the 2-hour performance.

The concert presented was amplified by the musical elements and tunes from the Broadway Musical shows which left the crowd swooning for the music legend, Fela Anikulapo – Kuti.

Musical cast of the Tony Award winning Broadway Musical were Sarh Nguajah who plays Fela, Iris Wilson (Female Ensemble), Rue Brown (Female Ensemble), Jason Herbert (Male Ensemble), Afi Bijou (Female Ensemble), Shawn Fisher (Female Ensemble) and Olutayo Bosede, a Nigerian actor and dancer whose first tour with the band is the current Fela! The Concert Lagos.
