by Matthew P. on If you see this show, you're going to have a great time. Fantastic music, dancing, lighting, multimedia, costumes, acting. Fela! tells a story about Fela Koti, a Nigerian musician/political activist, explaining how through international travel and experiences, he melded musical styles (traditional African, jazz, funk, soul, highlife Cuban) and the politics of his day (including Black Power), into the style that's become known as Afrobeats. Similar to other recent Broadway musicals like Hair, Fela! bring the audience into the play. A short hip thrusting dance lesson, direct interaction with the audience as if you're in Fela's Nigerian nightclub, The Shrine. Dancing in the aisles. But it works well and doesn't come across hokey or gratuitous.
