  • David Mashabela chats to the man affectionately known as Papa G - Darlington Michaels. Papa G takes us through his life journey, from his time as a young boy living dangerously in White City to developing love for theatre until he joined Gibson Kente’s theatre company. What stands out is how he credits his amazing wife for the man he ultimately became.

    Many life lessons were learned from this conversation.
    1. When there's a problem next door intervene don't say that does not affect us. One day the same challenges they faced we will encounter them.
    2. Every man needs to commit to a family.
    3. Respect and being humble goes a long way.
