Open auditions for Muvhango series 14 will be held on Saturday, 06 October, at Khoroni Hotel in Venda Limpopo.

The auditions are open to all children between the ages of 5-18 years old years old. No previous acting experience is necessary, but great energy and personality is paramount. Auditions will be held for the following characters (please note the auditions are age and gender specific). The auditions are from 09h00 until 16h00.

Mulondo (Male – Venda and English speaking) – 11-15 years: A quieter, more introspective child who seems to carry the world on his shoulders. As Susan’s child, he will not be chief, so he has less expectation on his shoulders than his younger brother. He is not the favoured child of Masindi because he is not of royal stock.  He is clever and thoughtful and adores his parents.

Muvhango (Male – Venda and English speaking)– 6-10 years: A cute and cheeky little kid. As Pfuluwani’s child he is definitely in the running to be the next chief and he will grow up to know this. He gets away with being naughty. He is over-indulged by Pfuluwani and Vho-Masindi, who adore him beyond measure. You know that one day this kid is going to break hearts. He is precocious.

Busi Motsamai (Female – Born Free Generation, Sotho, Zulu and English speaking) – 17-18 years : She has spent almost one year in an English school in Tokyo and when she returns to South Africa, she will have to complete her matric year here.

Vusi Mukwevho (Male – Born Free Generation, Venda, Zulu and English speaking) – 17-18 years: He is the spoiled prodigal son that returns home to cause havoc. He throws Thandaza into the turmoil of mothering a growing young man. He is charming and uses his charm to get out of trouble. He knows that his mother has influence and can sometimes use it to get away with anything

Kgalema Eugene Mametse, Muvhango Publicist, said “We are looking for children who can hold their own in an ensemble cast, but are very spontaneous with a flare of personality, each child will read a script no more than two minutes long”

*Children under the age of 18 years to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
