On this episode, this Youth Month, Tlotlang speaks with rising theatre-maker and multidisciplinary performer Ntlotliseng Matsabisa for an inspiring conversation about navigating the performing arts industry, finding her creative voice, and making a lasting impact through storytelling.

The discussion explores her journey from Mpumalanga to some of South Africa’s most respected theatre spaces, the lessons she's learned as a young creative, and the passion she pours into every production. We also celebrate her directorial work on *Uthunzi Lo’Thando*, a moving stage production that delves into love, loss, memory, and the emotional shadows that shape our lives.

Through honest reflections on creativity, vulnerability, and purpose, Ntlotliseng shares what it means to tell stories that resonate deeply while contributing to Mpumalanga’s growing presence on the national theatre stage. A powerful conversation about youth, artistry, and the courage to create work that leaves a lasting impression.
