About the Show
We’ve got a quick flash of megawatt star power for you: Madonna on Broadway! On March 18, the pop superstar dropped by the Broadway show inspired by and titled after another recording artist and rhythmic phenom, Fela!, which chronicles the life and music of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti. (As a former dancer, we’re guessing she was particularly impressed by Bill T. Jones’ signature choreography.) Her Madgesty has a behind-the-scenes connection to the show as well. Star Lillias White, who stops the show (twice) as Fela’s mother, can be heard on Madonna’s 1991 single “Rescue Me.” Click through for a quick look at Madonna’s one-night-only Broadway engagement.
