Productions
Bi-Okoto's productions are not performances about African culture. They are African culture, performed — drum, dance, language, and the philosophy that travels with them, carried into theaters, schools, and community spaces.
New work
A fusion of Shakespeare's Othello and Yoruba mythology, with Yemoja at the center. Two acts. Five actors. An Afrocentric setting woven across Lagos and the southern United States, integrating music, dance, and ritual.

The Journey
An Afrocentric play that meditates on children in society — the love we offer them, the confusion we sometimes pass to them, and the collective adult accountability for who they become. Themes that move across love, confusion, and responsibility, anchored in a continent's ancestral wisdom about how we raise the next generation together.

Our Children
The follow-up to Irin Ajo, continuing the meditation on children, community, and shared responsibility. Where Irin Ajo asks the question, Omo Wa moves toward the answer — naming the children as ours, collectively, and the work of raising them as ours together.
Booking
Our productions tour to schools, theaters, universities, festivals, and community centers. Each booking is shaped to the venue and audience — talkbacks, workshops, and residency add-ons can be paired with the performance itself.

“Bi-Okoto's work doesn't ask audiences to observe African culture. It invites them inside it.”
