The cultural and performance hub, Terra Kulture, Victoria Island, Lagos, will on Saturday, November 8, 2025, host the White Garment Experience 2025, a major edition of Anathema in Concert 3.0, featuring the stage play “Baba Aladura: Moses Orimolade Odyssey.”
Produced by Cheser Media and endorsed by the National Association of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners (NANTAP), the play is directed by renowned theatre icon, Makinde Adeniran.
The production is designed to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Cherubim and Seraphim (C&S) Church, celebrating the faith journey and cultural impact of its founder, Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase, popularly known as Baba Aladura.
According to a statement by the organisers on Wednesday, Anathema in Concert 3.0 will serve as both a spiritual reflection and an artistic tribute to Orimolade’s missionary work, which laid the foundation for one of Africa’s most enduring indigenous Christian movements.
“The story and ministry of St. Moses Orimolade Tunolase are not only a source of pride to the Cherubim and Seraphim Church but also a spiritual gift to Nigeria, the African continent and the world at large. The stage play and other projects by Cheser Media seek to reinforce this fact,” the statement read in part.
Alongside the play, the Anathema Music Group and the Anathema Choir will deliver musical performances aimed at ministering to and uplifting the audience.
The red carpet opens at 3 p.m., while the main event begins at 4 p.m. Tickets are priced at ₦20,000 for exclusive access and ₦200,000 for VIP reservations.
Cheser Media, the producer of the concert and play, is a creative platform dedicated to showcasing the ideals, ethics and spiritual traditions of the Cherubim and Seraphim Church.
Its Anathema projects began as a talk show that featured discussions on the open disdain and misconceptions often directed at the church.
The talk show, titled “Anathema Talk Show,” featured guests from various C&S sub-denominations and sought to correct misrepresentations about the white garment movement.
The discourse later inspired the production of a documentary film, “Anathema – The White Garment Experience,” which premiered in Texas, United States, in 2022.
The success of the documentary led to the formation of the Anathema Music Group, composed of C&S gospel artistes who produced its soundtrack, including songs such as Egbe Kerubu Tiye and Supplication, among others scheduled for release.
Tickets and further information on the event are available through the following contact numbers: 08080465207, 08070933787 and 08023670622.
The Anathema in Concert 3.0 event is expected to draw an audience of faith leaders, artists, historians and theatre enthusiasts, as it seeks to blend spirituality, art and cultural heritage in celebrating a century of divine inspiration from the life and ministry of Saint Moses Orimolade Tunolase.
