Strings, Khemikal, Yogendra Ahimi and a host of other performers thrilled
lovers of poetry and music at the second edition of Sobolo + Chicken Poetry
Show held at the Efua Sutherland Drama Studios at the University of Ghana,
Legon.
Staged on Sunday, 12th March, 2017, the Sobolo + Chicken Poetry
Show is a fusion of great music, drama, comedy, dance and spoken word.
In its second year, the show, gained popularity among students
attracting over 600 audience to this year's show to experience a night of great
poetry performances from Gombilla the poet and Ghana's finest poet, Chief
Moomen of the Heritage Series fame- producers of Wogbe jeke.
The show started with an acapella group which mesmerized the
audience with never heard renditions of popular songs with a touch of new,
fresh sound and unique style. They gave each song they performed a new identity.
Soon after, Jake the juggler rocked the stage with his juggling
and acrobatics displays. He performed hula hooping, juggled four balls, whirled
around a pan and laptop on stage.
Musical performances from Six Strings and Crespo got the
audience yearning for more of their soothing songs.
Khemikal was at his best and cracked many ribs with his funny
jokes.
Poetry has always been an intimate affair between the performer
and the audience, and the best way to experience this, is to see and hear it
performed live. That is exactly what the audience experienced when Chief Moomen
and Gombilla the poet mounted the stage to perform.
Chief Moomen mounted the stage and gave his fans a delightful
treat performing his patriotic piece about Ghana.
The man of the moment, Gombilla the poet served the audience
with a sterling performance exhibiting great stage craft, uniqueness and great
talent.
The poetry performances were on various themes such as
homosexuality, love, politics, Africa, and some sought to address societal
issues such as child marriage and falling standards of Ghana's educational
system.
The show was organized by ANDY.COM Entertainment with the
support from DYNAMIC THEATRE with the headline artiste been GOMBILLA
THE POET.
The organizer vowed to make the next edition even more bigger
and entertaining.
