Uncle Ebo and his team from Roverman Productions are set to produce their first online play via YouTube. The play, which is a classic titled ‘The Day Dad Came’ highlights the efforts of a father at saving his daughter from an abusive relationship, and issues that arise from it.

Since 2008, Roverman Productions have produced a new play every quarter, drawing thousands of Ghanaian theatre enthusiasts to the National Theatre. However, since we recorded the first cases of COVID-19 in Ghana, there has been the need to restrict movements and gatherings, as a way to curb it’s spread. This has affected a lot of activities, Roverman being one of the hardest hit. However, with virtual streaming options like YouTube available, hope is not yet lost.

To commemorate Father’s Day and help in the fight against Covid-19, Uncle Ebo Whyte is making it possible for the general public to watch one of his plays for free on his YouTube channel.
