Behind-the-Scenes: Zainab Jah - Acting

Zainab Jah ("Maima") explains her background in theatre and her beginnings as an actress.
ECLIPSED is the story of five extraordinary women brought together by upheaval in their homeland of Liberia. They forge a close-knit community... one that inspires them to feats of increasingly greater strength. Directed by South African-born LIESL TOMMY (The Good Negro, Appropriate), ECLIPSED is a stirring tale of hope, humor and resilience-and the only new play by a woman on Broadway this season.

Zainab Jah, O Queen of Nigerian Audible....please do more reading on books of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Because you were so amazing on half of yellow sun. I laughed, cried, and it really touched my heart and it all happened because of your talent and chimamanda’s writing!
