Perez Chapel theatre production house presents ‘Poverty Makes Noise’

This Christmas, Ghana’s favourite Christian event hosting centre, the Perez Dome is set to welcome thousands as it presents its evangelism-theme drama, Poverty makes noise.

The stage play highlights the spirit of the season giving, the playwright Smart Takyi Nixon told theghanareport.com.

He explained the drama production emphasises the need to correct the thinking of Ghanaians on what it means to give and what it means to be poor.

The play comes off Wednesday at Dzorwulu headquarters of the Perez Chapel International, founded by one of Ghana’s charismatic Christian leaders, Bishop Charles Agyin Asare.

The church’s developed and groomed one of Ghana’s finest Christian drama group, the Perez Theatre Act (PTA). The theatre group has been producing annual plays for seven years, starting with ‘the pretender’ and later drama productions like Sunset, ‘I chop the preacher’.

Last year’s edition, ‘Something Sweet’ attracted more than 1,200 visitors and patrons from various faiths and religions.

PTA is mainly a group of at least 30 talented actors with several of them having pursed or pursuing it as a professional and academic discipline at the University of Ghana.

Their plays, rib-cracking, their message, touching the soul and spirit. The group believes the stage is a “crusade ground” and works to leverage the power of drama to send a gospel message.

Heavily funded by the Perez Chapel the show continues to be free because ‘no one goes to a crusade grounds and pays a fee’, theghanareport.com has been told.
