Description

There is a beast within a marked territory. He was once a man, but this time, he is a being that none should behold deep within the forbidden forest.

Now, a princess is in love with him.

Olu Igbo is an epic African stage play that blends folklore, history, and spirituality into a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and destiny. Set in the ancient Yoruba kingdoms, it tells the story of Princess Wura, whose forbidden love for Olu Igbo—the mystical guardian of the forest—ignites a chain of events that pits tradition against desire, man against spirit, and power against sacrifice.

“Through rich proverbs, dramatic battles, and haunting songs, the play explores whether true love can heal the rift between worlds… or damage it forever!”

“An accurate depiction of the cyclical nature of the African tragedy.”
