It Has Been A While...

FELA! is still going strong on Broadway. I saw the show again on Wednesday, February 17. I had the priviledge of hosting a number of community leaders, many of whom had never been to Broadway. It really bouyed my sagging spirits. Kevin Mambo was on in the title role. He was amazing.

For those of you who don't know, the role of Fela is shared by two actors -- Sahr Ngaujah and Kevin Mambo. Please learn their names. It drives me crazy when people proudly say that they've seen the show twice (That's good). Once with the dark skinned Fela and the other with the light skinned one (That's not so good).
