Actor-Van Vicker who was recently appointed by the Film Directors Guild of Ghana (FDGG) as one of its executive members has stated that, most Kumawood actors cannot READ…

Speaking on Hitz Fm, Van Vicker said; “Some movies done in Kumasi don’t really follow script per say. Because a number of actors there can’t read so they just give scenarios. They mention a scene and the actors will have to come up with their own wording that is worth acting but when I go to shoot in Kumasi and I’m faced with similar problems where they give me scenarios, I demand scripts so I’m given a script but not a fully fleshed script”. 

He said the above to highlight the difference between the Accra made movies mostly termed as glamour and the Kumasi made movies popular known as Kumawood movies.

It’s true most Kumawood actors cannot read but lacking this has not stopped them, they’ve turned it into something positive—they do far better than the glamour folks when it comes to sales and telling the Ghanaian story.
