Why am I a SANBS Ambassador?

"I always believe in the philosophy of ‘What you put in is what you get out’ It is very important for me to be involved in a project where there is a sense of the greater good. I also love the human body and how it functions so blood ,being the life juice, is very appealing. Creating awareness and removing stigma is also a role I like being actively involved in."

Amateur dramatics was his first step towards expanding his personality and gaining the self-confidence and personal skills he needed to survive in this dog eat dog world. After doing his first production with the “Franklin players” he received an award for best actor in an amateur musical, and the rest as they say is history. Stephen then went on to study at the Pretoria Technikon where he completed his Drama Diploma. Following that he started perusing all different avenues and facets of the entertainment industry; from Puppetry to directing, Script writing to educational theatre, sexual awareness workshops to children’s theatre. Stephen has a passion for screen and film acting and has starred in various local T.V shows like SNITCH on M-NET, Home Affairs on SABC1 and has dabbled on soaps; Egoli and 7de Laan. He made his Hollywood debut as a featured extra in the film Femme Fatal starring Antonio Banderas. His love for live performance drew him back to stage and has seen him in shows like Shakespeare’s Macbeth, Terrance McNally award winning Love Valour and Compassion, Ladies night, the musical version of Debbie does Dallas, Hair, We Will Rock You and Fings.
