Why Sceptre is different

This is not a play you watch from a distance.

In most theatres, the story stays on the stage. In Sceptre, the stage is the whole room, and you are standing in the middle of the kingdom.

I

You enter the palace

From the moment you walk in, you are no longer in Ikeja. You are a guest of the royal court, surrounded by its music, its colour and its secrets.

II

The story moves around you

Whispers in the corridor. A gathering in the village square. A confrontation before the throne. The action happens beside you, behind you and in front of you.

III

You witness the choice

When the crown is contested, the whole kingdom holds its breath. You will be in the room when the Sceptre finds its rightful hand.

The cast of Sceptre in royal regalia

The story

A kingdom on the edge.
A people ready to rise.

The old king's reign is ending, and the throne is not safe. Behind the smiles of the court, alliances are forming and loyalties are for sale. Somewhere in the kingdom stands the rightful heir, and not everyone wants that heir found.

Drawn from the richness of royal tradition and inspired by a true life story, Sceptre asks the question every throne has ever faced: when the crown is contested, who truly deserves to rule?

“Who holds the sceptre, holds the kingdom.”

Before you come

Questions from the court

What does "immersive theatre" mean?

Instead of sitting far from a stage, you are placed inside the world of the story. The scenes happen around you in the palace, the court and the village square, so you experience the drama up close rather than from a distance.

How long is the show?

Sceptre runs for 90 minutes. The 1st Session runs 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM and the 2nd Session runs 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM.

What time should I arrive?

Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your show starts. The kingdom opens its doors early so you can settle in, take photos and enjoy the atmosphere. Latecomers may have to wait for a suitable moment to be seated.

Can I use my ticket for a different show?

Your ticket is valid only for the exact date and session you booked. Please choose carefully. If you need help, call or email us before your show date.

How do I pay?

Pay instantly with Espees and your tickets are emailed as soon as payment goes through. Or pay in Naira by bank transfer, upload your receipt, and your tickets are emailed once payment is confirmed.

Is Sceptre suitable for the whole family?

Yes. Sceptre is a family story of courage, loyalty and destiny. Every person who needs a seat needs a ticket.

Can I book for a group?

Yes. Groups of 5 or more get the 6th ticket free and seats kept together. Start a group booking here.

I booked but can't find my ticket.

Check your spam or promotions folder first. If it's not there, use Find My Booking and we'll email your booking links again.

Eight shows. Then the curtain falls.

The kingdom is waiting. Take your place.

When the crown is contested, you'll want to be in the room.
