  Fela!

The Concert Lagos.

Featuring energetic dance performances and flawless musical renditions, the band and performers re-enacted the spirit of the Afro beats’ maestro, Fela in a 2-hour performance while engaging the excited audience. Guests were also treated to a Fela! inspired make up by Zaron Cosmetics which will continue throughout the show.
