Jollof Court
Poplar Union are proud to host Gail Egbeson’s acclaimed theatre show, Jollof Court, as part of our Black History month digital programme, with the fun twist of being able to enjoy your very own Jollof Rice delivery whilst watching the show!
What to expect
Jollof Court is a digital theatre dining experience told through the lens of a Nigerian Bride-to-be and her Ghanian fiancé who find themselves unable to agree on the type of Jollof rice that should be served at their wedding. After numerous failed deliberations between family and friends, the couple decide to take this disagreement to court as a final resort to save their union.
The performance will premiere on our YouTube channel at 7pm. You will receive a private link to access the film the day before the show. This performance will be captioned.

Help Judge Matthews in the head to head battle as he attempts to find which country has the best Jollof Rice by ordering your own serving of the dish!
