Taking to his Instastory, Okeke who is solidly immersed in acting encouraged his colleagues to try out theatre – a form of acting that uses live performers to present the experience of a real or imagined event before a live audience in a specific place, often a stage.
He wrote: “ABOUT THEATRE…Dear Actor, May You NEVER know the feeling of exhilaration one experiences at curtain call. May you NEVER get to understand the power of Your magic, during a performance. May You NEVER…
… Until You Try THEATRE.“Do THEATRE.At least Once in your Acting Life Time. Theatre is not a “special skill”… It just requires a great Imagination It’s the Place of the Threshing Floor. I’ll motivate you with reverse psychology. I’ll manipulate you into believing in Yourself. Follow Me. This My kinda Slay”.
