In a vibrant effort to revive Port Harcourt’s theatrical culture, Alliance Française Port Harcourt, in collaboration with Art in the Garden City, hosted a captivating live performance of Wole Soyinka’s classic play The Trial of Brother Jero last weekend. 🎭✨
The evening delivered witty dialogue, expressive storytelling, and nostalgic scenes that brought Brother Jeroboam to life; a charismatic figure navigating ambition, influence, and the delicate art of managing appearances. 🎬🎙️
Timeless in its satire and rich in cultural insight, the performance explored themes of trust, human motivation, and the subtle “performances” we all enact in our daily lives. It was a powerful reminder of how profoundly local stories can resonate on a universal scale. 🌍💫
