On December 30, 2023, Headybrains Theatre celebrated its 5th anniversary with the captivating play "No Syringe Attached" at the Christian Restoration Ministry International, Windy Ridge - Takoradi. The play, skillfully written and directed by Mr. Evans Apraku Boadi, a standout Theatre Artiste in the Western and Western North Regions, unfolded at the dynamic Headybrains Theatre House.

As the Western Region's most vibrant Theatre production house, Headybrains Theatre House has consistently delivered back-to-back entertaining and thought-provoking dramas during its five-year journey. Productions like "Fate of the Nation Address," "Daddy's Roommate," "Bed of Wonders," and more have left a lasting impact.

Defying traditional norms, Headybrains Theatre House has embraced diverse venues, including churches, weddings, and unconventional spaces. Last Saturday in Windy Ridge, Takoradi, they made history by transforming a church into a Theatre space for another impactful presentation of "No Syringe Attached."

Set in contemporary Ghana at the Healing Heart Hospital, the play revolves around Dr. Mensah, a middle-aged doctor facing an unexpected twist when his estranged father, Mr. Tony, seeks his help for kidney failure. The narrative unfolds with a complex web of accusations, jail time, and the consequences of seeking revenge, ultimately leading to Mr. Tony's demise. The revelation that Dr. Mensah owed his career to his father added a poignant layer to the storyline.

Following Bertolt Brecht's belief that Theatre should confront societal issues, Headybrains Theatre House echoed this philosophy in "No Syringe Attached." The play not only delivered laughter but also addressed pertinent social issues such as unemployment, the repercussions of one's actions, soaring dialysis costs, and raised awareness about kidney disease.

Seguwaa, a hospitality management graduate turned hospital cleaner, embodied the play's message of adapting to life's challenges. Her journey, from a menial job to marrying Dr. Mensah, the hospital's CEO, underscored the theme of flexibility and resilience.

While highlighting the seriousness of kidney failure, the play advocated for government intervention in reducing dialysis costs in Ghana. It also condemned practices leading to kidney disease and emphasized the consequences of reaping what one sows.

The audience undoubtedly enjoyed the performance, and CEO Mr. Evans Apraku Boadi in his closing remarks, pledged to deliver top-notch productions consecutively. He expressed a vision for Headybrains Theatre House to become the best in Ghana and among the finest in Africa, calling for corporate support to fulfill this ambitious dream for Sekondi-Takoradi.
