One of the oldest and most successful acting groups in the country, The Ebonies, returned to the country last week, after a two week stint in the United States of America.
However, the number that returned was less than the number that had left the country for the Uganda North America Association (UNAA) convention in Boston, US; six members of the group fizzled from their camp and have never been seen since then.
We have learnt that city lawyer, John Katende, who is the boss of the group, is not ready to make any more ‘losses’ and, according to the reliable source, he has told all members of the group to deposit their passports with him.
Apparently, since they have valid visas, he is afraid that some of the actors and actresses are planning to fly back to the US, where they are believed to have made several connections during their short stay in the land of endless opportunities.
However, the source says most new members have yielded to the directive but that some of the top guns in the group have refused to comply with the directive.
The Ebonies have been having shows from Friday to Sunday at their home; Theater La Bonita.
