“There is a lot the Ghanaian film industry needs to do and I will avail myself to bring change to the film industry. This actors workshop is not for only beginners who want to act but everyone who wants to pursue acting or has an interest in acting. I would also be using this workshop to audition for new talents for two international movies I have been tasked to cast,” he said in an interview with Showbiz on Tuesday.
The goal of the workshop, he said is, “to provide the most consistent training, comprehension and respect for the craft of acting. And I invite everyone to participate’. The workshop will focus on areas such as acting techniques, voice exercise, improvisation, scene work and anything else required in professional acting.
