Adedimeji, Branch, Other Nollywood Stars Set For “The Gods Have Spoken”

Popular Nollywood Director, Muyideen Oladapo, (aka Lala) has announced the stage is set for the opera of “The Gods Have Spoken” at Terra Kulture in Lagos on October 18 and 19, 2025.

Written by Taiye Adeola, the opera will feature a collection of top Nollywood actors and actresses including Lateef Adedimeji, Femi Branch, Tunji Sotimirin, Omowunmi Dada and Lizzy Jay.

Addressing journalists in Lagos recently, Lala, who also directed the stage performance of Ola Rotimi’s play “Kurunmi”, said the collection of stars for the opera was a deviation from the norm, as the audience will be seeing them in another element for the first time.

Saying the play has 40-page script and over 140 pages of music, he revealed the performance will feature over 80 actors and crew members.

To him, “Opera is a play in the form of music and art where the singers and instrumentalists perform in a theatrical way. Every line will be acted out in the form of a song. I chose to perform “The Gods Have Spoken” because the message mirrors society. It’s a story that gives hope to the common man in their pursuit of destiny.’

Commenting on the play, Sotimirin said: “This is a tiny script with a unique, significant message and dialogue being rendered for a spectacle to behold. This is to celebrate the common man’s voice to equip themselves.”

Choreography Director, Segun Adefila noted the story which is about destiny and character teaches how man can influence the voice of the gods to bring destiny to life.

Speaking at the performance rehearsal, the Music Director, Adeaga Mofopefoluwa, stated: “The Gods Have Spoken is a peculiar play with a unique message for the audience. We have been working on the music scoresheet written by the writer and the arranger of the play, orchestrating the performance of this play. I assure the audience of a captivating performance different from what they’ve experienced.”

The producer, Olamide Oladapo added: “This is a satire and total theatre: dancing, acting, singing, with actors saying their lines in the form of songs. This will captivate and engage the audience. And I would like to add that we have something special coming on stage. I want everyone to watch out and come see.”
