“Fela!” – produced by Jay-Z, Will, and Jada?

On November 23rd the play “Fela!” will be opening on Broadway.  The play isn’t new.  ”Fela!” is coming from an off Broadway run that must’ve been pretty damn good because the play has earned 3 new producers- Jay-Z, Will Smith, and Jada Pinkett Smith.  ”Fela!”  is about the unconventional Afrobeat artist, Black Panther, and activist Fela Kuti.  With Jay-Z, Will, and Jada as producers the show is sure to be well funded and we can expect the three to help with the marketing push.  Their red carpet appearances at the premiere will definitely help to bring the hype.
