Kabelo Mabalane, to host Play Your Part TV series

HOUGHTON – As South Africa celebrates 20 years of democracy, an inspiring South African 13 part, 48 minute magazine TV show titled Play Your Part, débuts on SABC 2 on Sunday 15 June.

The Play Your Part TV show created by Brand South Africa, hosted by Kwaito star Kabelo Mabalane, will be screened weekly on Sunday nights on SABC 2 from 15 June at 9pm for 13 weeks.

Mabalane said, “I am of the conviction that ordinary South Africans doing extraordinary work should be profiled for the sole reason of inspiring others that also want to make a difference and play their part in moving the country forward.”

The 48 minute show will explore the remarkable journeys of ordinary and well-known South African’s struggles, obstacles, successes, triumphs, tragedies and will ultimately find solutions and create legacies that impact the broader community.

Extensive research, archive footage and interviews will be used on the show to tell the story of our transformation and unification as a young democracy. Stories of individuals that fight corruption, build safer communities, reform public service, improve health care and the quality of education, training, innovation and continue to promote active citizenry will take centre stage.

Brand South Africa’s Strategic Marketing and Communication Director Wendy Tlou said they were excited to be spearheading a show of this nature. “We have much to be proud of during our last 20 years of democracy, but it is time for us all to coalesce around our National Development Plan, which aims to ensure South Africa’s economic and social growth and development,” she said.
