Nigerian theatre has, over the years, consistently suffered from little patronage, however, the theatre culture has recently been revived through the active support of corporate organisations — Thespian Family Theatre is one of those organisations.

The organisation will be staging a theatre play titled ‘The Crystal Slipper’ this month, after it hosted theatre lovers to an unforgettable experience last Christmas season, with the well attended ’Mad King of Ijudiya’ stage play.

According to Thespian Family, Crystal Slipper is a story based on a protagonist called Adesewa, who lives in a world craved by everyone; a world of beauty, love and joy.

However, there’s a twist of fate when she loses her mother and her father decides to re-marry.

Crystal Slipper is a 90-minute play that will feature some of the best known names in the Nigerian entertainment industry, including Van Vicker, Gideon Okeke, Iyke and Florence Okechukwu, Lala Akindoju, Adesua Etomi, Shafi Akinrimisi, Nedu of WazobiaFM, Kryptic Kidz and many more.

The play will be holding at Agip Hall, Muson Centre, on July 20, 21, 27 and 28.
