ANYTHING LIKE THIS ON BROADWAY.”
BEN BRANTLEY, THE NEW YORK TIMES

Enter the extravagant, decadent, rebellious world of Afrobeat legend Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. His Passion Ignited a Generation. His Music Fueled a Revolution. His Legacy Inspires The World.

Based on the life of groundbreaking African composer and performer Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, FELA! is the critically acclaimed Broadway musical that uses Afrobeat music (a blend of jazz, funk and African rhythm and harmonies) to explore Fela Kuti’s life as artist, political activist and revolutionary musician.

Directed and choreographed by Tony® Award winner Bill T. Jones, with arrangements by Aaron Johnson and Antibalas, FELA! is a provocative hybrid of concert, dance and musical theatre.
