I need to say a proper goodbye to my fans.<\/p>\n<p>When I take my curtain call and bow after that show, then I know my love affair with the stage is done,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>Incidentally, the title of the show is KSM\u2014The Final Curtain Call and it is scheduled to come off in a few months.<\/p>\n<p>At 61, the vibrant and active KSM declared with laughter that he is going to unleash the energy of the \u201cyoungest old man in GH on that day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not going to be just a show, it is going to be a memorable event,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Although he might have hit the limelight with his one-man play, Saga of a Returnee in 1997, KSM has in fact been entertaining Ghanaians since 1977 when he staged his first play, Mellow Madness.<\/p>\n<p>Forty-one years later, he is still a vivacious talk show host on one of the most respected prime-time shows on television.<\/p>\n<p>His show, The KSM Show has been on air since 2003 and it is still hot and relevant.<\/p>\n<p>There are rumours of KSM bowing out of TV too and Showbiz asked him about that as well and his response was uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, because I am eventually going to pass on the hosting to a young brilliant talented guy.<\/p>\n<p>He is fascinating, and I can\u2019t think of a better replacement to take over from me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The No is because he is not totally leaving TV.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that he is shifting from hosting and stepping into the shoes of a full-time executive producer.<\/p>\n<p>This he said would enable him to focus on churning out quality local content for radio and television.<\/p>\n<p>He hinted that he was in discussions with a couple of TV stations who are looking to engage Sapphire as their production wing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very excited about this. When the deal is sealed with the stations, Ghana will know the details,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>For now, he is preparing for his very last performance. It\u2019s still some months away, but he is not taking any chances.<\/p>\n<p>He is determined to go out with a bang and is obsessed with putting up what everyone will say is his best performance ever.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 33 updated by: 33 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Friday, 23 February 2018 Source: Graphic.com.gh 2018-02-23 Kwaku Sintim-Misa (KSM) For a very long time, Kwaku Sintim-Misa (KSM) was known as the Undisputed King of Comedy and he lived by that accolade until he passed on the baton to comedian DKB two years ago.
