Draped in the weighty Aso Oke fabric, I felt like I was carrying way more than just a costume. Playing Anlugbua in Women of Owu, I became a vessel for Yoruba history, channeling the Powerful voice of that old-man deity who shows up to comfort those who are grieving.
Theatre, just like Oríkì, is our special way of keeping old stories breathing.
