In a recent interview on TV3’s “NewDay”, Naa Ashorkor disclosed that it has been a revelation for her to move from film to stage performances since it has given her the opportunity to learn how to do something correctly the first time.

“You know they say that stage is a great place to learn for all actors because on stage you are live and you know how it is when it is live, you don’t have the opportunity to redo it. Stage affords you the opportunity to learn how to do it right for the first time,” she said.
