12 Strokes for That Madman Stage Play in Lagos this December

Nov 25, 2025

12 Strokes for That Madman is a gripping stage drama from playwright David Bamidele. Bold, emotional, and unflinching, the play confronts the collision of love, tradition, silence, and the courage required to break generational cycles.

Synopsis:

"Set in a close-knit Yoruba community, this story follows Adelola, a newly married woman basking in the bliss of her perfect marriage... until a buried truth resurfaces and tears open a wound the community tried to forget. What begins as a celebration spirals into a tale of trauma, power, betrayal, and the unbreakable courage of women who refuse to stay silent."

With humour, stirring music, vivid characters, and bracing emotional honesty, this production demands audiences confront uncomfortable truths—and the strength required to challenge them.
