    ‘Suspended somewhere between reclaimed pop exotica and Afrofuturism, it’s perhaps with Ebizie, in the intimacy of a confined theatre, that the elusive claim to a new sort of live music-theatre hybrid gains ground.’

    THE WIRE


    Lady Vendredi The Passion of Lady Vendredi (Tears in the Rain): Nigerian performance artist Nwando Ebizie has recently finished a run at the Soho Theatre with a show of the same title as this 12” EP. Visually she offers the sci-fi glam of Seventies disco queen Nona Hendryx but her music is more reminiscent of the Afro-electro mash-up of Portugal’s Buraka Som Sistema or the abrasive Latin hip hop of Brazilian MC Karol Conka. It is, in other words, an attack-music gumbo of sweaty dance grooves, seasoned with global roots music, and you won’t hear a filthier come-on that “Dirty Chicken” this year.

    The Arts Desk - EP Review

    If you had to describe The Passion of Lady Vendredi stage show in one word, ‘chaos’ would be a good place to start. Channeling the spirits, rhythms and elements of Haitian vodou into her own electric cocktail of dance, beats and technicolour get-up, performance artist and musician Nwando Ebizie’s show takes audiences through a... more

Channeling the spirits, rhythms and elements of Haitian vodou into her own electric cocktail of dance, beats and technicolour get-up, performance artist and musician Nwando Ebizie’s show takes audiences through a ritual like no other. Attacking gender, sexual and religious dogmas throughout, it’s a riotously immersive journey into the culture of the Afro-diaspora.
