Young, enterprising playwright, Kobina Ansah is set to unleash a new work by the middle of September at the Efua Sutherland Drama Studio, University of Ghana at Legon.

It is set in a deprived area and tells the story of four friends: a trotro conductor, a pickpocket, a head porter and a hawker, all with a common dream to change their circumstances despite their differences.
They decide to use their various artistic inclinations to form a music and dance group called Tribeless to help pull them out of their dire circumstances.
Just when they are about to hit the limelight, conflict sets in and threatens to derail their ambitions.
Kobina Ansah’s previous plays are ‘This Family Is Not For Sale (Season 1 and 2)’, ‘I Want To Sue God’ and ‘My Wife-In-Law.’
“This latest one promises to be the most electrifying piece I have ever staged,” the playwright told The Mirror.
