Poster for 'Moremi - The Goddess'

Scene from 'Moremi - The Goddess'

This was a very exciting venture, with 55 younger performers aged nine to thirteen. 'Moremi - The Goddess' is based on a Nigerian folk story, written and directed by a Nigerian, Bisi Adigun. It was a fantastic opportunity for the young people to explore African culture and traditions. The show included African songs, drumming, costumes and dance. It was very spectacular and great fun.

We gave this show full production values, with set designers, costume designers, lighting people, full programme and poster. In recent years we'd tended to emphasise the older age group, but we're now trying to redress this imbalance.
