<\/p>\n

\n

Here in Ghana, it is general knowledge that every year, Ebo Whyte puts together four new plays; one for each quarter.<\/p>\n

These productions are then repeated during the Festival of Plays in December with an additional show from the previous year as top up.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

As an Ebo Whyte fan, I always make it a point to be at all his productions.<\/p>\n

From \u2018Just The Tip\u2019 which came off in March to \u2018I Like What You Like\u2019 in July, Roverman has kept stage production lovers entertained through out this year.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

However, the latest play by the team will remain my favorite for 2023, no matter what.<\/p>\n

I mean, I have watched some plays by Roverman that left me bored, others that confused me and a few that touched my soul, but I must say Ebo Whyte\u2019s skills as a renowned writer and producer was perfectly displayed last Sunday.<\/p>\n

Yes, he got it right.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

Titled \u2018Naked In Bed\u2019, the play was funny, educative and intriguing.<\/p>\n

Indeed, situations may not always be as it seems and that was exactly what we took home.<\/p>\n

The venue<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the dates for the latest production came out, I wanted to be part of the first set to watch it.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

This is because two weekends are always dedicated for the shows and I didn\u2019t want to come across spoilers on social media.<\/p>\n

However, my friends could not make it, hence the need to settle for the week after.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

So on Sunday, September 10, I stormed the National Theater with my two best friends, Hilda and Anita.<\/p>\n

But unlike previous shows where we got great seats, this was a little different.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

The hall was packed. The mood was light and merry. Every body had reported right from church or their Sunday brunch\/lunch.<\/p>\n

Just like us, they knew Ebo Whyte always starts on time and they made sure to report before 4pm.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

However, unlike me who finds pleasure in chit-chatting with the Roverman team, they went straight to their seats while I went round saying hello.<\/p>\n

It is important to note here that, I don\u2019t just go to the National Theatre every quarter for the plays. I also go because of the bond I have created with the team.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

Roverman feels like family, thereby making every quarterly show a family reunion.<\/p>\n

Chit-chatting with Ken, Adrian, Emeka and the rest of the squad is the highlight of my day, the drama is just the icing on the cake.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

For my friends, it is also about the pictures and the after-production \u2018jama\u2019.<\/p>\n

Those who attend know what I am talking about.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

The Play<\/strong><\/p>\n

When Samson\u2019s fianc\u00e9e, Vicky catches him receiving a semi-nude massage from her best friend, Mercedes (Played by Daniella\u00a0Afotey), she is determined to call off their wedding.<\/p>\n

In anger, Vicky calls her mother and aunty to come over so she can report him.<\/p>\n

This action sets the ball rolling and creates the platform for the various revelations that were made.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

Samson (played by Roland Amoah Awuah) is unable to defend his actions\u2026. and his fianc\u00e9e (played by Roxanne Bougsin Koffi) who lacks patience is unwilling to forgive.<\/p>\n

However, Vicky\u2019s mother (played by Ernestina Twumasi ) and aunty (played by Rosemary Arhin) refuse to accept her decision to call off the wedding.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

Using their own marriage experiences as lessons, they try to convince Vicky to give her future husband a second chance.<\/p>\n

But it takes the intervention of Samson\u2019s father, Jackson (played by Andrew Tandoh Adote) to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding Samson\u2019s alleged infidelity.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

The Cast <\/strong><\/p>\n

As usual, the set was beautiful. I loved it. Loved the wall paper and the story it told.<\/p>\n

Ebo Whyte\u2019s set designer is a person after my own heart.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

It was also easy to see that the 6-member cast was specially selected to fit the role they played.<\/p>\n

Apart from Vicky, who I do not mind whether she is changed or not, the rest must not be touched in December.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

I will personally petition Ebo Whyte on this.<\/p>\n

And after months off stage, Ebo Whyte\u2019s favorite actor, Andrew was back.<\/p>\n

I get why he is a favorite\u2026. Andrew is good. His presence commanded power and attention. I couldn\u2019t help admiring him.<\/p>\n

But although his role was important, he was not my star performer for the night. That slot went to Aunty CD.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

This was my first time seeing Rosemary Arhin on stage and she was fun. I liked her energy and vibe.. I mean, where has she been hiding? For her sake, I will watch the play again in December.<\/p>\n

The audience also got to enjoy Ernestina\u2019s wonderful voice. That girl is really talented and she can sing.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

This play gets a 10 over 10 rating from me. I will also recommend it to every one. If I want to introduce Ebo Whyte or stage production in Ghana to anyone, this is the one I will select.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t even mind how religious it was. No one in that auditorium did.<\/p>\n

We had fun and took a couple of advises home. That\u2019s all that matters.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

So on that note, watch out for the next play in November and make a date with the Festival\u00a0of\u00a0Plays.<\/p>\n

Tickets are sold for GHS150, which means you can\u2019t use money as an excuse.<\/p>\n

\"Naked<\/figure>\n

P.S: Roverman will be relocating from the National Theatre\u2026.but that is an important information for a new day.<\/p>\n
