    • Musica: approfondimenti

“Irin Ajo” is about the journey of human existence, even in our confused  state of mind, as we love and hate, “Irin Ajo” tells us that we all  have the responsibility of making things right. Finding out what those  are will be the beginning…“Irin Ajo” is the beginning of a journey we  all must take

In this production of Irin Ajo, Bi-Okoto is proud to collaborate with the Footprints of David Art Academy, the Ijolomo Dance Company led by Rasheed Ibrahim and Theatre Centrik led by Tony Biyi Boyede.  All of these organizations are based in  Nigeria.   The artists from these  amazing academies will be virtually  transported and included in this production!
