Key Seeds: Queen Idia The Musical

Sun 4 May

Proudly supported by Landmark Theatres Key Seeds Programme.

Queen Idia: The Musical is a vibrant new production that brings to life the inspiring story of Queen Idia, the iconic warrior queen of 16th century Benin Kingdom in Nigeria. With a powerful blend of Afrobeats, spoken word poetry, and dance, the musical captures her bravery and intelligence as she plots her son’s ascension to the throne and shapes his reign and the destiny of her people.
Queen Idia the Musical is being developed through a collaborative R&D process with UK and Nigerian creatives. This production is a celebration of resilience, leadership, and cultural heritage and promises a captivating, modern retelling of an African legend.
