An immersive play exploring a true story of murder, race, and justice, where you decide the verdict.
Esther’s Revenge, produced by Tope Sanni, is an immersive theatrical experience drawing from the true story of Esther, who reportedly killed her white lover in 1953, resulting in a death sentence by hanging. This participatory production delves into themes of race, colonization, sexual abuse, violence against women, and societal injustices. Esther guides audiences through the events preceding Mark's death, while the jury is tasked with deciding on a stay of execution.
