When the Duke of Shomolu approached me about this production, my initial impulse was resistance. My take was, Stage productions like this are usually about historical figures long dead. I wasn't in any hurry to be joining my ancestors anytime soon and I told him about the theatrical production 'EVITA', expressing my hope that the plot for my life story so far would be as authentic as possible, and that the overall narrative and dialogue must create an engaging and compelling experience for the audience.
Well, it's now about to debut. BIANCA is the latest in a distinguished line of historical productions by the acclaimed Duke of Shomolu Foundation, the only play so far in their stable of productions which is about a living individual.
'BIANCA' chronicles my journey to Today... my dreams, struggles, triumphs....but my life as I know it, is still a work in progress.
The Opening Night of this stellar production promises to be spectacular, and one of this year's most riveting theatrical events, with an electrifying musical performance by the soulful Timi Dakolo.
At its core, ‘Bianca’ is a compelling story of passion, love, and unwavering conviction.
Life performance? Would have loved to watch.
