“Still A Rose” at the National Theatre on Nov. 3 & 4
After successfully staging “Women at Work” and recently “The Dilemma of a Ghost” actor Fiifi Coleman is back with another play titled Still A Rose.
Scheduled to take place at the National Theatre on Friday, November 3 and Saturday, November 4 at 4 pm and 8 pm each day “Still A Rose” features Adjetey Anang, Jackline Ansah, Pastor Edwin Dadson, Alvina Cooper, Willie Chembez, Nana Prempeh, Lady Portia, Fiifi Coleman, and many more.
The play is about a lady who was abandoned by her father when she was just 15. She yearned for the love she felt she deserved and desperately sought it in the arms of different men. She longed to convince herself that she was not to blame for her father’s departure.
But then, Ike entered her life – a man of grace and charm, admired by her entire family. He seemed to be the answer to Stella’s prayers. Yet, beneath the facade of perfection, lurked a darker side.
When Ike’s violent tendencies threatened her daughter’s safety, Stella discovered a newfound courage, fueled by a deep faith she never knew she possessed. Together, the women of the household embarked on a journey to find inner peace and strength. They united to confront the horrors that had haunted their lives for generations, driven by the unwavering belief that God’s grace and their shared determination would see them through.
The production is brought to you by “For UK and Worldwide Visas Ghana” Duchess Merchant Capital and in partnership with Hitz FM.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
