Yemandja Theatre Tickets

Step into the mind of Angelique Kidjo with Yemandja tickets from TicketSmarter. Yemandja is the first theater project taken on by superstar Angelique Kidjo. Kidjo is a three-time Grammy award winner who is an international pop star. Growing up in Benin, West Africa, Kidjo combines the traditions she grew up with American and European influences in her music.

After taking the music industry by storm, Kidjo makes her theatrical premiere in Yemandja. Yemandja is set in the 1800s in Dahomey, West Africa, which is now Benin. The play is reminiscent of Greek tragedies with gods tampering in the human world. Yemandja deals with themes like horrors of slavery, free will, love and betrayal. Although Angelique Kidjo came up with the concept, Yemandja was actually written by her daughter Naima Hebrail Kidjo. 

The show is directed by Cheryl Lynn Bruce and is produced by The Office performing arts + film. Kerry James Marshall was the visual designer for the show. Kidjo will play a character who was given the gift of song by the gods to help change the course of history. In Yemandja, Kidjo’s vocals will be accompanied by a live band as well as an ensemble of dancers and singers. Come see a production unlike any other with Yemandja tickets with TicketSmarter.
