Our Lady of Kibeho: Visions of the Virgin Mary in a Rwandan Village

Nneka Okafor and Owiso Odera star in the play Our Lady of Kibeho, directed by Michael Greif. It is based on real events in 1981, when a village girl in Rwanda began telling people in her village about her visions of the Virgin Mary. She was ostracized by her community, but soon the Virgin Mary began to appear again and again, causing upheaval in the village. Our Lady of Kibeho runs through December 14, 2014 at The Irene Diamond Stage at The Pershing Square Signature Center.
