A star-studded, talented team brings the hit bio musical Fela! to Sidney Harman Hall. Directed and choreographed by Tony winner Bill T. Jones and produced by Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, Fela!'s high-energy mix of dance, theatre and music tells the true-life story of Fela Kuti. Using Kuti's pioneering music -- a blend of jazz, funk and African rhythm and harmonies -- Fela! explores Kuti's controversial life as artist, political activist and revolutionary musician.
