About Us
Our Story
The SUMI Group comprises three anonymous writers whose paths converged in Ogun State, Nigeria. Their shared upbringing in a land rich with folklore and vibrant traditions ignited a collective passion for storytelling. From early explorations in narrative poetry and local theatre to honing their craft for the global stage, they have always been driven by the desire to tell stories that matter. Their unique approach draws from real-life experiences and universal human truths, creating narratives that resonate deeply across cultures. They believe in the transformative power of storytelling to explore complex emotions, societal issues, and the timeless struggle between love, betrayal, and triumph.

Our Journey So Far
Since our inception, The Sumi Group has been committed to pushing the boundaries of storytelling. Our journey has seen us evolve from passionate wordsmiths into a full-fledged film and theatre production powerhouse, with five exciting films currently in various stages of production.
In June 2025, we premiered our breakout stage production, Dear Father—a powerful and emotional story that resonated deeply with audiences. Headlined by Nollywood legend Richard Mofe-Damijo alongside other celebrated veterans, the show marked a major milestone in our journey. With over 3,000 attendees across its limited run and coverage from top UK news outlets, Dear Father firmly established The Sumi Group as a rising force in global theatre.
Each project is a testament to our dedication to crafting compelling narratives that not only entertain but also provoke thought and inspire reflection. We are proud to bring diverse voices and real-life stories to the forefront, sharing powerful perspectives with the world.
