Nigerian musical Saro highlights migrants to Lagos

Broadway in New York and London's West End are known for musicals, but now can the city of Lagos join them?

Nigeria's first major musical has opened with a production called Saro.

It is the story of people seeking a better life in Lagos, which they see as a place of opportunity.

Focus on Africa's Tomi Oladipo attended the premiere, which has been tipped to lead a resurgence in Nigerian theatre.
