Featured Artist
Rotimi Agbabiaka, born in Lagos, Nigeria, is a force to be reckoned with. After completing an MFA in Acting at Northern Illinois University, Agbabiaka has graced San Francisco stages, museums, and parks. You may recognize Miss Cleo Patois, Agbabiaka’s memorable alter ego often seen around town. Agbabiaka has received acclaim for solo plays, including Homeless, Type/Caste, and MANIFESTO. This summer, Agbabiaka brings directorial prowess to one of Shakespeare’s beloved classics in San Francisco.
