I thought the show was extraordinary, and Sahr Ngaujah's performance truly stunning; his energy could single-handedly light up Times Square for hours! And I hope you got to see Lillias White, who was equally stunning playing Fela Kuti's mother. Looking forward to seeing your new films! -Tom Lee Hi, Jane:

The stage looks Magnificent! I will have to put Fela on my list now that I'm able to sit again. All the pix are great but the picture of you and Richard with some of the cast is quite lovely. Thank You for giving us a glimpse of the show Stay Blessed Roseann Jane

It was one of the best shows we have seen. We are recommending it to everyone we know who will visit New York with a "must see". The entire cast was fabulous and the dancing incredible. One of the ensemble dancers, I believe, Iris Wilson, was notably fantastic! We happened to be seated in the audience across the aisle from Jane Fonda and Richard Perry, so being "typical tourists", it added a lot more fun to our few hours in the O'Neill Theater. We hope the show will continue to be very successful.

I have a friend for many years now ,a Dr. Hillary O. Onyeche runs International student advisory center for international education at the University. Dr. Onyeche is from Nigeria,and most interesting of friends. Being a student of International business, I have become interested in the Nigerian problems and history, a good subject area. Fela enjoyed playing the saxophone wearing nothing more than a pair of Y-fronts, surrounded by his 27 wives like a superb African emperor. A true legend in African music, Fela is famous for both his musical genius and his very strong political standpoints. I'm sure that must have be a very good experience. Nigeria is a good subject, it shows what oil and Early British Imperialism will do. Nigeria would have fared better if not for Western imperialist pretensions.
