Utopia Theatre and Sheffield Theatres release production images for Anna Hibiscus’ Song, the theatrical adaptation of the much-loved children’s book by Atinuke. Staged in the intimate and flexible Playhouse, the story of Anna Hibiscus is directed and adapted by Utopia Theatre Founder, CEO and Artistic Director Mojisola Kareem-Elufowoju.

This is the story of a young girl named Anna Hibiscus. Anna lives in amazing Africa. Ibadan, Nigeria to be exact.

Anna Hibiscus is so filled with happiness that she feels like she might float away. And the more she talks to her mother and father and grandfather and grandmother and aunties and cousins about it, the more her happiness grows! There’s only one thing to do…Sing!

       

Althea Burey will plays the roles of Narrator, Angel, Mama, Malick Bojang, plays Grandfather, Chocolate, Papa, Saskia Rose plays Anna Hibiscus, Maya Thompson plays Auntie Jolie and Narrator and Dorthea Darby plays Grandmother, Ben, Uncle Tunde. The on-stage musician is Julius Obende.
