Producer, Fabian Burrell, in association with Ramba Productions presents this timeless masterpiece which celebrates the redemption of the human spirit laced with an originally composed Highlife music score. Written by P. Chudi Uwazurike, PhD, the play unfolds through the mystical eyes of the Earth Mother and opens at John F.
