Efe Paul Azino among them took to twitter to mention the impending trip:
“We have left sweat on the floors of rehearsal studios from the Island to the Mainland, laughed and quarreled, fretted and hoped. Tomorrow I fly to Berlin with this band of exceptional storytellers for Finding Home, a show I have always imagined for the road. Thanks guys for believing, for jumping into this chaos of a dream with me. Let’s give ’em a show in Berlin and return to bless Lagos with our gift in December. Holla if you’re in Berlin. We’re coming through. Two shows. 19th & 20th ?. @titilope, @obiioutloud, @chika_jones, @adesolafakileholyblaze, @femielufowojujr, @endi2g is missing from this picture by the way #FindingHome#Berlin #Lagos #Poetry #Theater”
And left a picture:
The group of spoken word poets that have been making steady waves in the creative industry are set to take the German stage by storm as they fly out of Nigeria later tomorrow.
In a Facebook post by Chika Jones Onwuasoanya who is one of the poets going on the trip, he said:
“What is home? A person, a place, family, all of the above or something else?
After weeks of rehearsals, editing, rewriting and second guessing. We will try to answer the question of Finding Home in Berlin on October 20th and 21st.
If you are in the area, please join us.”
He also shared pictures of the group on his social media wall:
