THE UFOT CYCLE
Nine plays.
Three generations.
One family’s American becoming.
Why A Cycle?
Because one play could not hold the whole inheritance.
A cycle allows the family to be seen across time, from different rooms, wounds, generations, and truths.
It lets what was once hidden in one play return, deepen, and finally be named in another.
How to Enter the Cycle
Each play in The Ufot Family Cycle stands alone, with its own world, wound, and revelation.
The plays can be read or seen individually, but together they form a generational map of one Nigerian-American family moving through migration, inheritance, rupture, repair, and joy.
Enter anywhere, then follow the family deeper.
The Family
At the center of The Ufot Family Cycle is Abasiama.
Her journey from Nigeria to America changes every life that follows.
The Ufots are a family trying to survive what they inherited and find their way back to one another.
The Vision
The Ufot Family Cycle makes epic space for a Nigerian-American family on the American stage.
It insists that immigrant families are not side stories.
They are history makers, myth carriers, and architects of what this country is still becoming.
