Is The Theatre & Stage Plays Culture Coming Back?

After a seemingly state of forgrtfulness, the Nigerian entertainment industry is gradually beaming its light on theatre and stage plays. After many years of wallowing in the dark, the plays and theatrics are coming back.

There is a new level of appreciation of stage plays and theatre presentations. People are beginning to find a reason to do something different from the regular music and comedy shows.

Many theatre related events are gradually grabbing headlines with encouraging turn out as people crave for something different and original. The enthusiasm and beautiful artistry that stage plays exude seems to be gearing up for a showdown with regular events. There is a no holds barred aura that overwhelms the audience, something films cannot equal even with all the technological advancements they have embraced. It takes one who is brave, talented and audacious to interprete a character convincingly to the admiration of the audience as you get an immediate feedback from them.

All stage actors are prolific film actors but not all film actors are prolific stage actors.The Taiwo ajayi lycette’s, Ebele Okaro’s, Carol king’s and Joke Silva’s of this world are a testament to this fact which is why they are in a class of their own.

Stage plays hardly condone mediocres who have swarmed the film industry. Many Nigerians are irritated by this annoying trend and have decided to go back to their first love ( STAGE PLAYS) which really inspired the film industry in the first place.
