dc.description.abstract	The Ajon festival of the people of Kogi State has been a focal point of inspiration and an insight into the writings of Obafemi. Yet, the most impressive aspect of the performance that caught his attention as a youth in his hometown was the colourful use of costumes and beautiful elaborate colors for spectacle during Ajon festival. His interest, however, transcends his youthful fancy to include his exotic and adventurous experimentation in the construction of plots and scenery in his plays. This paper focuses on the intricacies and exposes the prospects a costume designer would undertake in designing for Obafemi's plays, especially because of his underlining eye for the motif of Ajon as seen in his works. The Nights of a Mystical Beast (2005) is used here to X-ray his experimentation and attempts to delve in recreating the spectacle in Ajon festival.	en_US
