The Jollof House Party Opera

THURSDAY 09 OCT 4:30pm & 7pm  

A Fio and Music Theatre Wales co-production

The Jollof House Party Opera is a 20-minute live pop-up blending hip-hop and opera into a one-of-a-kind show.

Chef Adeola is feeling the heat – and we’re not talking pepper soup! With a new baby, a business to run, and a food safety inspection looming, the pressure is rising. Can they handle it, or will it all boil over?

Written and performed by Welsh-Nigerian artist Tumi Williams and directed by Elayce Ismail, this vibrant new production also stars April Koyejo-Audiger, Black British Theatre Award winner. It’s a celebration of modern, multicultural Cymru – reshaping perceptions of opera and bringing live performance into unexpected spaces.

After the performance, audiences are invited to stay and share food* – continuing the celebration through conversation, community, and flavour.

Based on the Celtic Film Award-winning short film by the same creators, originally co-created by Tumi Williams and Sita Thomas.
