Agape Arts Production rolls out Ghana’s maiden mobile theatre with Kelewele Junction


Agape Arts Production is set to debut Kelewele Junction, Ghana’s and Africa’s first-ever mobile theatre experience, on July 26 and 27, 2025.

This daring production transforms a moving Aayalolo bus into a live stage, offering audiences an unforgettable journey through the streets of Accra — and deep into the human soul.

Written and produced by the prolific Francis Jeremy Afizie — a creative force with an impressive 25 plays in nine years- Kelewele Junction is a suspense-laced drama that unfolds on a bus ride shared by six ex-convicts.

At first, they appear to be strangers, each lost in their thoughts, but as the bus rolls on, so do the revelations. Secrets unravel.

Tensions rise. And before long, the passengers and the audience are swept into a whirlwind of confessions, hidden truths, and haunting connections.

But it’s not just the storyline that sets this play apart. It’s the ride itself.

Staged entirely on a moving bus, the production immerses audiences in real time. With a route starting and ending at the National Theatre of Ghana, and passing through landmarks like 37 Military Hospital, Cantonments, Osu Oxford Street, and Black Star Square, the city becomes part of the script.

Every traffic stop, every turn of the wheel, every streetlight adds to the tension and texture of the story.

This theatrical first is made possible through a partnership with Aayalolo under the Ghana Passengers and Transport Executive, turning the bus into both a set and a symbol, breaking down traditional theatre walls and putting performance directly in motion.

Kelewele Junction will run three times daily over the two-day showcase, giving theatre lovers multiple chances to climb aboard and experience this bold reimagining of what theatre can be.

Under Mr. Afizie’s direction, Agape Arts Production has built a reputation for bold, socially conscious work that challenges norms and stirs thought.

With this latest innovation, the company once again proves it is not just producing plays — it’s pioneering movements.

Tickets and showtimes will be announced soon, and audiences are urged to book early. Seating is limited — and so is the chance to say you were there when Ghanaian theatre took a literal and metaphorical leap forward.

Get ready for a performance in motion — where every turn reveals a secret, and every mile brings you closer to the truth.
