dc.description.abstractAbstract Adapting drama to music, particularly in Nigeria, has received little attention compared to other aspects of the arts, e.g drama itself. Yet adapting drama to music has remained a veritable toolin the hands of those who have discovered its potency. This paper focuses on adaptation and the composer's challenge in operatic drama, using Hutcheon's theory of adaptation. The paper employs the descriptive and analytical method through the analysis of some musical notations, as well as the description of some processes of adaptation. Findings show that the theory of adaptation has been hidden to many composers and that the aspect of adaptation from drama to opera has not beenfully explored. The paper concludes by analysing easy ways and steps to adaptation.en_US
