Panelists Matt, Phyllis and Kathleen
Of all the new shows to open on Broadway so far this season, none has been anything like Fela!, the tuner that tells the life story of pioneering musician and political activist Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Fusing Afrobeat music and the innovative staging and choreography of director/creator Bill T. Jones, the show is the sort of high-octane, high-brow, real-life musical journey that makes a statement (and attracts big-name backers like Jay-Z and Will Smith). So were Word of Mouth-ers Phyllis, Kathleen and Matt moved by the powerful story of Fela!? Watch the video to see their review!
