A UK-Based Ghanaian arts promotion organisation, Ram Productions Company Limited (RPCL) with an outlet in Accra is set to organise a number of events dubbed ‘Real Star Series’ which will seek to unearth hidden talents in the Ghanaian arts sector.
RPCL which has promoted events in the UK, featuring artistes such as Kweisie Pee, Daasebre Dwamena, T. Blaze, Dada KD and K. K. Fosu, hopes to bring originality and a truly creative spirit into the unique talents Ghana has for the international market.
The ‘Real Star Series’ will begin with a maiden event which will search for and recruit a six-member all female African band for international performances.
The six-member band will be groomed to enjoy patronage in Africa and Europe within 12 months. According to the organisers, youth between the ages of 18 and 25 will be targeted. They must be of sound mind and have a minimum BECE certificates. In addition to these they must be single and know how to play at least an instrument.
The ‘Real Star Series’ will be launched at Yegoala Nite club, Dansoman, on January 1, 2006, to be followed by another one at Yegoala, Kumasi, a week later.
The scout for the female band will involve a road show in some major towns and districts in all the ten regions. Four major auditions will be held at Tamale, Kumasi, Ho and Takoradi.
The 10 regions have been grouped into four zones comprising Upper East, West and Northern Regions in Zone One; Ashanti, Brong Ahafo and Eastern Regions in Zone Two; Western and Central Regions in Zone Three and Zone Four is made up of Greater Accra and Volta Regions.
Twenty contestants will qualify for the quarter final event with a concert and other entertainment performances in Accra.
These contestants will all be camped, groomed and trained by seasoned artistes in performance skills, stagecraft among others.
The 18 semi-finalists will be hosted by the organisers after which the final 12 will perform at the grand finale at which the best six will be selected to form the band.
According to the organisers the female band will not only shake the whole of Africa and the world but will put the name of Ghana on the international entertainment map.
