Easter weekend beginning from Saturday, March 30 to Easter Sunday, March 31, will be full of fun for Lagosians and theatre lovers around the city as they will experience a breath-taking, rib-cracking and heartwarming satire entitled What Men Want at the Main Auditorium of the Nigerian Law School, Victoria Island, Lagos.
What Men Want revolves around love, marriage and sacrifice. Ever imagine what a Gen-Z and Millennials co-wife system is like. The play is a satirical comedy that tells the story of two women married to a loving man, a Generation-Xer. The first wife is a Millennial whilst the second and younger wife is an outspoken GenZ. As the play unravels the audience get to interrogate the values that make for a good, well lived life; and the age-old question of what a man is seeking in a woman that keeps him exploring amorous relationship with the female folk throughout his life.
The play is produced by Oluwanishola Adenugba for Live Theatre Lagos and directed by Austin Onuoha (“Itura” and “AmUnbroken”) and features Motunde Sogunle (‘Mr. Maraconi Web Skits”) and Diana Agbede (‘A True Christmas Story”). What Men Want would move you so get ready to laugh, to cry and be thoroughly entertained.
