As has been their tradition, Ebo Whyte’s Roverman Productions thrilled the audience at the National Theatre with their latest play, ‘I Want Your Wife’ which opened on Saturday,  July 6, 2019. 

The fully-packed National Theatre was filled with laughter and lessons as scene after scene from ‘I Want Your Wife’ unfolded.

‘I Want Your Wife’ a production interspersed with music and comedy made up of four main casts, Ben, Abena, Yeboah, and their church pastor.

The cast had it with: talent, good looks, money, a beautiful and creative analogy and an anointing one like none other.

The play is about how failure to be decisive on issues can create monsters which later come and cause harm.

In the play, Ben and Abena have been married for ten years and it has been heaven on earth. Then a message from a prophetess says that Ben should give up his wife whom he has wedded for the past ten years to Yeboah, the only rich man in the church, the prophecy started revealing the cracks in their marriage.
