SOUTH African comedian and actor, Vuyo Mgudlwa, popularly known as Madluphuthu, is expected in Plumtree next weekend for a family fun day.
The talented actor is also expected to grace an after party that will be held at 4Js Sports Bar next Saturday.
Event organiser Handsome Sibanda said the fun day would be held at Allan Redfern from 10AM till 5PM with the after party scheduled to begin at 7PM.
“We’ve realised that entertainment events in Plumtree cater for adults only hence our decision to have a family fun day. Madluphuthu will mingle and interact with fans of all age groups,” said Sibanda.
DJs Yugoe, Mabae, Widdy, Zbox, Pujah, Betso, Cooldread and Hilary will provide entertainment at the fun day.
Madluphuthu’s manager, Teddy Mlenzana, confirmed their visit to the border town saying it would be a great opportunity for the actor to interact with local fans.
Madluphuthu, who is as tall as a midget, sometimes with an irritating running nose, will likely be a hit in Plumtree as he is the personification of a township hero, celebrated for doing absolutely nothing but spreading his charm and silly jokes. Despite his protruding teeth, people have grown to love him though he plays the character of a retard.
Sibanda, who has hosted Israel Makoe, best known for his role as GP in Gaz’lam and Gunman (real name Christopher Khubheka) revealed plans to host more actors from South Africa. – @DubeMatutu
