Notable Nollywood actress Monalisa Chinda, Charles Inojie, Ejike Asiegbu and Francis Duru are amongst Nollywood A-listers who will breathe real life into the characters of the stage play, Philomena: Interview With A Prostitute that will be staged in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital from February 11 till 14 February.
In the play, the fairly ordered lives of Philomena, a prostitute in her last laps, ‘Area’ her regular customer, frustrated master’s degree holder and primary school teacher is disrupted by the arrival of Wesley, a bombastic journalist with an inflated view of himself when he gets his sack on the phone while sitting in Philomena’s beer parlour for a consolatory drink. Wesley would later get back at society for the ‘injustice of his sack over the phone’.
