The story of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti needed to be told. Why get nostalgic for Rich Medina’s DJ sets from APT honoring the king of Afrobeat, or hold out on a Hollywood movie when you can see Fela as a musical—the way it should be shown.
Now is your chance to see Fela! because Suite903 is giving away two free tickets starting today. All you have to do is leave a comment in this post. Use your correct e-mail—so we can get in contact with you—and your name is officially in the hat to see the one of Nigeria’s greatest contributors to music at the Eugene O’Neill theatre. The contest ends on Monday March 29th. Catch a preview of the show after the jump.
i’ve had friends see it two and three times. if ?uest is backing it, i’m all about it.

I’ve been wanting to see this since it came out!
I saw them perform a small portion of the show on Jimmy Fallon’s late night show – after picking my jaw off the floor (LOL) I’ve been wanting to see this show!
I’ve heard so much about this play and just amazed by what I have seen thus far. I’m crossing my fingers for these tickets!
I have been waiting to see this for a minute. Huge fan of his work !. Loving the Afrobeat movement. I need to take my wife !
I want 2 win!
I want to win.
I want to take my mom and 11yrs brother to see this.
I hope I get to see this before it ends! I’ve heard AMAZING reviews from friends who have been able to go.
I love Fela Kuti’s music and his influence on our culture!
Fela Kuti…if you don’t know who he is then you must see the show (for just an introduction)…Fela is in his music! I was born listening to Fela so seeing the show would be a delight to see how the arts of dance and theater interwine with Fela!
This would be a great show to take my child to learn some history.
I want to win
