The Ceremony

The Ceremony, world premiere by Mfoniso Udofia, directed by Kevin R. Free. Produced by CHUANG Stage, in partnership with Boston University School of Theatre and Boston Playwrights’ Theatre. Mfoniso Udofia continues her Ufot Family Cycle with a vibrant, heartwarming celebration of love intertwining Nigerian and Nepali cultures. When Abasiama and Disciple’s only son, Ekong asks Lumanthi Rathi to be his wife, they accept that their dream wedding might have to go on without either of their fathers present. But when Lumanti’s dad has a sudden change of heart, Ekong dares to attempt a reconciliation with his long-estranged father in order to make the ritual of their wedding ceremony truly whole.

CHUANG Stage, Boston Playwrights’ Theatre, and Boston University College of Fine Arts join forces to produce this world premiere, commissioned and developed by The Huntington.
