Kagiso Mokgadi
Kagiso, or KG as he is affectionately known is well and truly on his way to becoming a true comedy heavyweight. The son of a Sangoma and a nurse takes his audiences on a unique comedy journey with a glimpse into the "behind the scenes" practices of a Sangoma and what it's like having one that you call "dad", a nurse to call mom and why he was never able to take a day off sick from school. His take on what is regarded as an "unknown" is yet another first for South African comedy.
