Anvil Theatre | July 24–26 at 7:30 PM | July 27 at 3:00 PM (with Talk-Back Session)

Presented by Akofena Afro-Theatre Society

Set in post-independence Ghana, Joe de Graft’s powerful drama “Through a Film Darkly” explores identity, belonging, and the lingering shadows of colonialism. Centered on the marriage between Janet, a young English woman, and her Ghanaian husband Fenyinka, the play examines interracial relationships, xenophobia, and the struggle to belong in a society shaped by history. With sharp dialogue and emotional depth, the story unfolds as a deeply personal and political exploration of how we see—and fail to see—each other through the lens of our pasts.

This timely revival, directed by Stephen Yaw Oppong, promises a compelling and thought-provoking theatrical experience that resonates far beyond its historical setting.
