IN FIVE YEARS TIME I SEE MYSELF AS ONE OF THE TOP COMEDIANS Says MR KAYODE VERIiSSIMO aka BABA LARUPE

" IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS I SEE MYSELF AS  ONE OF THE TOP  COMEDIANS'".Says MR KAYODE VERISSIMO .

Question 1 my name is kayode verissimo, A Nigerian of Lagos state origin. I was born on the island (Lagos island to be precise) but I grew up in ilupeju/mushin , where i had my primary and secondary school education. I developed interest in theater act in the late 90s, and besides acting i have passion for script writing.

Que 2; of course, for every profession or institution, the backbone of their success stories are always humans (manpower) u need people around u, people of like minds and interest, it's almost impossible to build your success alone , this is the major tool. Camera, props and capital (money) are secondary.

Que 3: I don't even know how or where to start from, you know memories are of different types, Sweet, bitter and probably sour, but i will like to limit myself to the sweet experience i had when i acted in Adekodere by karounwi films, OWO Osun by tajudeen mobolaji  and Aditu laye toyosi by Soji Oyinsan. People see u on the street, they are appreciated u and pampered u with gifts as if you have done them a favour.

Que 4; if you look around today, u will see stress and frustration written all over people face, and felt the need to ease tension, hence! My decision to go comic, as a form of relief and pass  serious messages in a less serious way, because from my comedy, u learn one lesson or the other.

Que 5: Honestly, comedy is an in built thing, and u can only give what u have

Having said that, I mostly derived my comedy from my immediate environment,(events happening around me)

Que 6: Next five years, all things been equal I see myself as one of the top comedian's to reckon with, and i pray my tentacles must have spread beyond the shore of Nigeria.

Que 7: for now,I'm in foundation stage, posting short comedy on my Facebook page, what I intend doing, is 25 to 30mins comedy ( the like of Erin Keke , by late Baba suwe).it has to be one step before another, probably in the nearest future, I will put 30mins comedy, on compact disc for commercial purpose.

Que 8: First and foremost,I appreciate them, because their comments are very encouraging, and i will strive to give them the best of me anytime, and anyday .

3. I REMEMBERED SEVERAL ARTISTS TELLING ME HOW YOU ASSISTED THEM IN GETTING COLLABORATIONS WITH FOREIGN ARTS MEDIUM TO SHOWCASE THEIR TALENTS. HOW DO YOU COME ABOUT THIS? It is by the grace of God Almighty and through the networks God brought my way as a result of years of experience, network and grace. It’s not what I do consciously; it’s part of my being human and I enjoy doing it effortlessly without expecting anything, I don’t even expect appreciation because the best reward or appreciation you can get; comes from God Almighty 

4. TELL US SOME MEMORABLE PRODUCTIONS OF YOURS: Quite much but I’ll mention few; very current is when I directed a trilogy (Ayanwunmi, Knife crime and Igbekun) for Osun Arts Foundation a company based in UK; Assistant Choreographer to Sir, Peter Badejo OBE for All African Games (Nigeria); Badejoarts ELEMENTAL PASSION (UK tour) also Music Director of “The Anthem” (a musical stage play); Assistant Choreographer to Koffi Koko and a Performer too with Collective Artistes Theatre Company for 'The Lion and the Jewel' UK tour; National Theater of South Korea residency concert (Musician)

5. HOW DID YOU DEVELOP THE PASSION FOR THESE ARTISTIC UNDERTAKINGS? I think God placed the hunger in me and it developed by implementing and paying attention to it, through continuous learning, constant research and being disciplined too.

6. What is DRUMSVIEW AND GONGBEATS ALL ABOUT? Both are theatre companies aimed at developing and projecting the arts, tradition and culture of our beloved country and continent. I am the coordinator of Gongbeat productions which was formed in 1992, founded by Debo Alexander and consists of trained theatre artistes, practitioners and enthusiasts who have come together to foster the spirit of professional theatre in Nigeria. 

I later created and became the artistic director of Drumsview Concept which was established in 2010 as a total theatre company that serves as a theatre academy to train and engage the youths and as well promote and preserve Nigerian cultural heritage. Drumsview has a subsidiary ‘Sights and Sounds de l’Afrique’ a drumming band that uses a fusion of contemporary jazz and African traditional music, in order to create a smooth blend of stage craft and uphold traditional drums and drumming.

7. WHAT NEW PROJECTS DO WE EXPECT FROM YOU? One major project I’m right now craving to bring into existence is the ‘Janggu Drum Festival’ a festival that explores the traditional culture of the South-Korean Janggu drum and Nigerian cultural drums as well as celebrate the quality, uniqueness and similarities. Also as a drum collector, I am working on a ‘Drum and Traditional Rhythm Research Institute’ as well as exhibitions of Nigerian drums and rhythms.
