From the stables of TLG, now rebranded as Globe Theater Group comes a high voltage satirical comedy -‘Gallery of Comedies’, which is a rib cracking drama that tackles the ills of the church and day-to-day real life situations.<\/p>\n

‘Gallery of Comedies’ would be showing at the National Theater on Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th July, 2011, with two shows each day at 4:00pm and 8:00pm, and it is a nonstop laughter comedy show, which the public would love to watch over and over again.<\/p>\n

Under the stables of Globe Theater Group have been previous hilarious comic shows, such as ‘You may kiss the corpse’ and ‘Romantic Nonesense’, which has gone a long way in sustaining the re-insurgence of stage drama and theater in Africa.<\/p>\n

The comedy is created by Nyansapo, a group of young theater graduates from the School of Performing Arts, University of Ghana, Legon. The play will feature two of the nation’s brilliant actors, namely Eddy Nartey, a known face on movie screens, and Foster Owusu Amponsah of ‘Laugh a Minute’ fame on Viasat 1, as well as comedy shows at Citizen Kofi..<\/p>\n

Speaking in an interview with the organizers of the show, Mr. Latif Abubakari, CEO of Globe Theater Group observed that it is a world class stage comedy show involving qualified professionals in the theater industry.<\/p>\n

“Our aim is to promote young writers and directors in the industry. We usually organise script writing competition in the Universities and Polytechnics across the country. This time, we had 176 scripts from which we selected only one, which was won by Nyansapo”, he stressed.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Prof. Chibere, the protagonist of the play, establishes a Virgin School, whiles his students, a bunch of young men with no strong formal education are in the school for the first time, due to the prestige attached to formal education.<\/p>\n

The students try to date Prof. Chibere’s daughter, and this begins the conflict between him and the students. However, Prof. has a bigger skeleton in his cupboard. Join the Nyansapo players to see how the whole mystery plays out.<\/p>\n
