The legendary “Link Show”, Guyana’s longest-running theatre production and a beloved staple of the nation’s cultural landscape, is set to reach television audiences for the first time from March 7 to 15, 2026.
First staged at the National Cultural Centre in 1981, the annual satirical production has entertained generations, staging 37 consecutive productions that have toured from Charity to Corriverton, Linden, and even abroad to Canada, New York, New Jersey, and Washington. Known for drawing crowds at the National Cultural Centre, Link Show has become a cultural phenomenon that blends satire, music, and comedy to reflect and critique Guyanese society.
A release from the show’s coordinators stated that Link Show 25 ran for an unprecedented 15 nights at the National Cultural Centre before travelling for another 10 performances across Guyana’s outlying regions, cementing its status as a theatrical institution and a symbol of Guyana’s rich artistic heritage.
Launched by The Theatre Company in 1981 with directors the late Ron Robinson, Gem Madhoo, and Ian McDonald, the show will now continue on television.
On March 7, 8, 14, and 15, the one-hour show will be aired on TVG28, NCN11, HGPTV65, ENET1, MTV65, and Ignite Channel 6/ENET6 at varying times from 17:00h to 22:00h.
GEMS Theatre Productions will now produce the show, directed by Gem Madhoo-Nascimento with a team consisting of Michael Ignatius, Mark Luke-Edwards, Sean Budnah, Rovindra Persaud, Brandon Singh, Simone Dowding, Le Tisha DaSilva, Tchaiko Rodney, Latiefa Agard, Marisa Morgan-Bonie, Amrita Koshall, Stephen Asif Mohamed, and Aliyah David.
Link Show 38 continues to provide entertainment and laughter.
