Adia and Clora Snatch Joy

    “

    This play is yet another triumph in Mfoniso Udofia's Ufot cycle of plays. The sparse dialogue in this tale of fated, destined and patient love is so fully buoyed by the theatrical movement and music of the Gods/ancestors she uses to push this couple together is a great director's dream. Can't wait to see this play fully realized on a stage.
