London has an amazing theater culture, so I know support for this amazing portrayal of Fela would be great! There is a play "CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF" currently on in London’s West End at the Novello Theatre. The play has an amazing cast led by JAMES EARL JONES, PHYLICIA RASHAD, yummy British actor ADRIAN LESTER and the fab chic, SANAA LATHAN. CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF is directed by renowned Emmy and Golden Globe Award winning actor, director and choreographer DEBBIE ALLEN, who is best known for playing Lydia Grant in the original film and television series of “Fame”. Go here for more info www.catwestend.com - Let me know how the play is, if you do go! Enjoy! Farai Hi Kudzi,

I just think that this was the time for Nigerians to show the world and tell our own story.I could not help but wonder why great Nigerian Acts like D'banj ,Omawunmi and Dede were not casted for the Play.O and also why was Wole Soyinka a Nobel Prize Winner not the Director of the Play? Not to take credit from the production ...it was entertaining but i know what it could have been. There is always room for "Fela: The Original" I saw the play and here are my thoughts!
