The performance takes 12 classical opera songs, including Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' and reworks them to tell the compelling story of Warrior Queen Nana Yaa Asantewaa through an all-female cast.
In our 8th episode in season 6, we speak to the creator and artistic director behind this afropera - Belgium-based Gorges Ocloo.
Gorges is a multi-disciplinary artist whose expertise includes performance art, contemporary dance – he is a stage director, librettist and composer and co-artistic director of Antwerp-based performing arts theatre Toneelhuis in Belgium.

If you’ve got an interest in opera, you might like to listen to our Season 6 episodes 1&2 interview with Venus Bushfires founder Helen Epega and opera singer Louisa Martin.
