🏳️‍🌈✨ As part of Pride Month, Jersey City Theater Center is proud to present:

WAAFRIKA 123
Written by Nick Hadikwa Mwaluko
June 7@4:00 PM Free with RSVP 

Set on the eve of Kenya’s first democratic elections, Waafrika 123 takes audiences to the rural village of Luoland, where Bobby, an American lesbian, falls in love with Awino, a trans man from the Luo tribe. As political tensions rise and famine strikes, the couple becomes the target of fear and blame, forcing their community to confront tradition, identity, and the realities of change.

A powerful story of love, courage, and belonging, Waafrika 123 explores what happens when people dare to live their truth in a world determined to silence them.

Featuring the work of Kobina Hagan, a Ghanaian artist whose practice explores identity, storytelling, memory, and the power of the body beyond language.

Presented in partnership with National Queer Theater.

🌍 Part of the Voices International Theatre & Arts Festival, bringing artists and stories from around the world to Jersey City.

🎟️ Join us this Pride Month and experience theatre that challenges, inspires, and connects us across cultures and communities.

For tickets and festival information: jctcenter.org

ADA accommodations are available. Contact info@jctcenter.org or 201-795-5386.
