Ghana’s flourishing creative arts industry is set to take centre stage internationally as DR. LIKEE LIVE makes its highly anticipated global debut at the Indigo at The O2 on May 22, 2026.
The landmark production promises an evening of comedy, music and stage drama, delivering an authentic and immersive showcase of Ghanaian storytelling to audiences in the United Kingdom.
Designed as a vibrant cultural variety show, DR. LIKEE LIVE brings together some of Ghana’s finest creative talents in a carefully curated blend of theatrical performance, live music and stand-up comedy. The event aims to offer a dynamic and fully immersive experience that reflects the richness and diversity of Ghanaian heritage.
While the broader vision for the production includes a multi-city international tour, London has been selected as its first global destination. A strategic and symbolic choice, given the city’s vibrant Ghanaian diaspora and multicultural audience.
At the heart of the production is Dr. Likee, a leading figure in Ghana’s Kumawood film industry and digital entertainment space. Widely recognised for his YouTube skits and relatable humour inspired by everyday Ghanaian life, he has built a strong following both locally and internationally.
His transition from screen to live theatre marks a significant milestone in his career, as he brings his distinctive comedic style and creative storytelling to a live global audience.
The musical lineup further strengthens the evening’s appeal, featuring Afrobeats sensation Wendy Shay and award-winning rapper Medikal. Both artistes are expected to deliver high-energy performances that will amplify the atmosphere inside the venue.
The stage play segment will showcase an impressive roster of celebrated Ghanaian actors, including Nana Ama McBrown, Akrobeto, Papa Kumasi and Vivian Jill.
Together, they are expected to deliver a compelling and culturally resonant performance that embodies the humour, emotion and authenticity synonymous with Ghanaian cinema and theatre.
Beyond its entertainment value, DR. LIKEE LIVE represents a significant cultural moment, a bold statement of Ghanaian creativity on the global stage. By seamlessly blending traditional theatre with contemporary music and modern comedy, the production underscores the growing international influence of Ghana’s entertainment industry.
On May 22, 2026 London will not simply host a performance; it will experience a powerful showcase of Ghanaian artistic excellence.
