A musical play is said to be a performed drama where songs and dances are fully integrated into a well-made story with the aim to evoke genuine emotions, entertainment and laughter. This and more was witnessed by thousands of Lagosians this December as they trooped out to see the highly anticipated Saro the Musical 2 organised by Terra Kulture at the Muson centre.
The much talked about musical was described as such a spectacular work of art that no one will forget in a hurry. From the highly spirited cast to the colorful costumes and lighting it was definitely an operatic production.
The roles in the play which is centered around four young people in search of greener pastures who relocate to Lagos to achieve their dreams where brought to life by vibrant actors and actresses such as Dolapo Oni, Gideon Okeke, Bimbo Manuel, Ade Laoye and others.
The play was graced by celebrities, top entrepreneurs and dignitaries such as Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, presidential candidate, Muhammad Buhari, Senator Mamora, Dr. Nasir EL-Rufai and Lagos State Governorship Aspirant, Dr Jimi Agbaje to mention a few.
As we all know musicals are commonly performed in other developed parts of the world but, they are still a relatively new genre in Nigeria, but with the success of Saro I guess its safe to say that musicals have come to stay for good.
If you missed the show, here are some photos from Saro the Musical 2.
