This follows a successful roadshow tour across Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi and Cape Coast.

Patrons showed up in extraordinary numbers, filling the auditorium with energy, laughter, nostalgia and deep cultural pride.

Speaking to the media in an interview on Monday, September 7, Fiifi Coleman said the adaptation seeks to protect Ghana’s cultural heritage and history.

According to him, the storyline remains relevant in today’s society and the current generation has lessons to learn from it.

“The movie takes you through family responsibility, and who has the right in the family when it comes to marriage, the father or uncle?” he quizzed.

He noted that in recent times families often shelve the need to conduct necessary background checks before marriage, adding that ‘I Told You So’ brings all these issues to the fore.

He also revealed that the feature film would be due for premiere in March 2027 in commemoration of Ghana’s 70th independence celebrations.

The stage production delivered a seamless blend of humour, heritage and contemporary relevance, reminding patrons of the enduring power of Ghanaian theatre to unite communities and celebrate identity.

With its successful run on stage, the team is now taking a bold step to adapt it for cinema.

He expressed his appreciation to all stakeholders for their support in making the project a success.
