Legon, Aug. 21, GNA – “Lorlor Sakor, a Song for Dziedzorm,” a stage play produced by Dzomoko Productions, at the University of Ghana, dazzled its audience with the force behind the power of destiny.
The musical play, written and directed by Mr. Kofi Dzogbewu, tells the story of two young people, Sowah and Dziedzorm, whose lives are woven together yet unaware of the tangled tapestry they will have eventually unfolds.
Sowah and Dziedzorm, the main characters, had never met in real life even though they met each other in dreams, and when their paths finally crossed, they both felt an unfathomable connection as though they had always known each other.
At the climax of the play, the two came to understand that their love was not a mere chance of encounter but rather a testament to the power of destiny and the unbreakable bond between two souls meant to be together.
The audience watched the play with keen interest as the drama unfolded, with intermittent breakouts of laughter, cheering, and repeating of some sentences and words of the performers as the night stage was brought to light with the needed lights and craft, creating the needed ambiance.
Ms. Britney Tachie, a student, commended the production team for the captivating story, adding that the cast played their roles perfectly to bring the story to life.
Ms. Tachie added that the blend of local languages with English gave the play a beautiful vibe, adding that she had been following the team since 2018 and had noticed that they kept improving on their productions.
Mr. Harrison Baffour, a driver, said the play was exceptional, stressing that the role of Sowah being a fisherman from a humble background and later becoming rich was very intriguing.
He said that role got him glued to the play and was hoping that such plays would be done regularly for the youth to learn, saying, “I recommend that it be done frequently; at least once or twice a month is not bad.”
Ms. Sandra Boaten, a play enthusiast, stated: “The storyline was interesting and very educative; we need more of these in our communities; it will surprise you how people’s actions would be shaped positively due to plays like this. I must say I don’t regret coming and will come anytime they have plays; it’s worth it.”
