Lesang Tshoke is an intelligent and creative individual, who strives for perfection in all that he sets out to accomplish, no matter the scale of the challenge.
Spending most of his childhood raised by a single mom and his elder sister, Lesang’s colourful ventures in life begin in 1998, where he discovered his love for musical theatre and at the tender age of 7, he secured the main character role in an annual school play. This cultivated his performing passion and saw him become a lead in the schools brass band where he played the trumpet.
The brass band saw Lesang Tshoke performing all over South Africa at multiple occasions from concerts to year end functions, to performing for the great late Nelson Mandela and the list carries on and on.
It was only natural that leaving high school, he decided to pursue music and the performing arts further, seeing him grow on to attend a prestigious art school in Pretoria named Pro Arte Alphen Park. That was the greatest decision he made which fed his need to be on a stage in various aspects. He then began training on the Piano as his second instrument major.
In his final 2 years of high school, the school allowed him to take on a 3rd instrument major (this was not a norm). He had achieved an average of over 80% in his first two instruments being the trumpet and piano so he was then allowed to choose where his other passion would lie, that being his voice. He decided to harness this passion by pursuing the study of classical and Jazz vocal training.
Leaving high school, he felt that the entertainment industry in South Africa with regards to classical, jazz and musical theatre was not where he wanted his bread and butter to come from as it is a fickle market and so he decided to take on one of his other dreams of becoming a doctor one day. He thus got accepted to the University of the Witwatersrand where he would study BHSC (biomedical) towards his MBBCh.
Lesang Tshoke MC’ing has since seen him be the master of ceremonies at events such as the Tshwane Food Festival, the UNFPA Stakeholder forum on accelerating SRHR financing, the UNFPA Regional Leadership Meeting for the Eastern and Southern Regions, Toyota Touch Season 8, the Wonderboom Airport Air Navigation Rally , where he was actually standing in as a aviation sport live commentator.
During this phase of his life as a well known content creator and subsequent influencer in South Africa, Lesang Tshoke decided together with some of his friends to enter the sort after 48hour film festival. At first, this was just for fun, until he and his partners realised what a great piece of art they had created, seeing them win 6 awards overall in South Africa, 4 awards and second place at Filmapalooza in Orlando Florida and eventually a screening at the Cannes Film Festival (short film).
As can be deduced by now, this is a vibrant young man who lives his life for the moment; chasing all his heart desires and making sure he succeeds at all he lays his hands on. An asset to anyone in any field who decides to take Lesang Tshoke on to any role they see fit.
