In an unprecedented move to help elicit the best from the cast of the Versatile Show slated for Saturday, November 8, at the National Theatre, Phoenix Insurance Company has insured the 70 performers scheduled to be on stage for the production titled, The Beggars.<\/p>\n
The show\u2019s producers say the private limited liability insurance outfit has agreed to provide an insurance cover of GH\u00a2 350, 000 for the entire cast. Each member is therefore insured to the tune of GH\u00a25,000.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”NnVDStPT0BDAwjj0rkpov8G0GGfqcZmo”]The Versatile Show is a mix of music, magic, comedy, dance, drama and poetry presentation written by Okyeame Kwame.<\/p>\n
The cast includes Wanlov Kubolor, Adjetey \u2018Pusher\u2019 Anang, Ecow Smith-Asante, Samini, Bradez, Edem, EL, Keche, Adina and Noyam Dance Institute.<\/p>\n
Activities in The Beggars, the producers say, involve a fair amount of climbing, jumping and body rolling which could put the health of the cast at risk.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was why we needed to get an insurance company that clearly understood the issues at stake and we are happy Phoenix came along,\u201d a source to the show stated.<\/p>\n
The production, according to Okyeame Kwame, is called The Beggars because though some of the key characters in there don\u2019t necessarily sit by the roadside and beg, their overall conduct give them away as beggars in disguise.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a satire about us and how we have programmed ourselves to beg for things we don\u2019t need to,\u201d says Okyeame Kwame.
