Young actor vows to follow his dream

Speaking to Showbiz in an interview, he said that he was introduced to acting from a young age. “At Primary school, during Commonwealth Day commemorations and the Day of the African Child, we partook in the events either by acting or singing,” he said.

Matontshe said that he landed his first role in a play when he was eight-years-old in a play entitled Mma Spatela. He said the realisation that he was not a good footballer led him to acting. “I have done a lot of stage productions like Therapy by Sengwato Rampha, Requiem by Dr. Fani-Kayode Omoregie and the Island by Athol Fugard,” he said.
