Explore unique virtual entertainment options for your virtual events. Engage and delight audiences with an innovative online experience < Back ARTIST ENQUIRY I am interested in Select a date First Name Last Name Email Company Phone Submit Event details Schalk Bezuidenhout Gauteng Schalk Bezuidenhout was born in a very Afrikaans, ‘bring-terug-Apartheid’ town right next to the airport in Joburg. In Kempton Park the traditional Afrikaans way of living was a good life. Your mother’s breast milk would be brannewyn en coke, you would walk kaalvoet to school, and you’d hide your lunch money when a black man walked past. His family and friends stood back as they watched Schalk evolve from an Afrikaans conservative caterpillar into a beautiful dramaqueen butterfly, complete with a moustache and furry afro. It was obvious to Schalk’s parents that he would study drama, and to help numb the pain they sent him away to study at the University of Cape Town. While studying in Cape Town Schalk slowly began to realise that there was so much more to life than boerewors and rugby, and started doing stand-up in April 2011. On stage Schalk is fun and energetic and appeals to people of all kinds and colours. Schalk has come a far way in the short amount of time that he has been doing comedy. He has had the privelage to perform at some great venues, alongside some even greater comedians. TESTIMONIALS “He was FABULOUS and we loved him – thank you!” – Jane, Tech News

Business Speaker // coach // Corporate Events // Motivational Speaker // Speaker // Speakers < Back Lewis Pugh (UK) ARTIST ENQUIRY I am interested in First Name Email Phone Submit Select a date Last Name Company Event details International LEWIS IS ONE OF THE WORLD’S LEADING INSPIRATIONAL SPEAKERS He undertakes over 100 speeches a year to companies and organizations around the world. Lewis is the only person to have completed a long distance swim in every ocean of the world. To date he has pioneered more swims around famous landmarks than any other swimmer in history. Each of these seemingly impossible feats was done to raise awareness about the vulnerability of our oceans and their importance to humanity. And he’s not finished yet.I began swimming in vulnerable ecosystems to draw attention to the impact of our actions on our oceans. I saw enormous chunks of ice slide off Arctic glaciers. I swam over bleached coral killed by rising sea temperatures, and over the bones of whales hunted to the edge of extinction. I visited lakes high in the Himalayas where once there was only ice. I saw plastic pollution in the most remote parts of the oceans, and garbage piling up so thick on city beaches that you can no longer see the sand. I’ve witnessed drastic changes in my lifetime – changes that have come about because of our actions. I soon realized that it would require a different kind of action to bring about the changes needed to protect our vulnerable natural resources. And so I began talking – to national and citizen leaders, to policymakers, environmentalists, scientists, and the media. Soon I was traveling more than I was swimming; people started calling what I do ‘Speedo diplomacy’. I’ve been privileged to be a part of some positive changes. And to share my stories so that people realize that we all have it within us to make a difference. I’ve shared my dream of oceans that are abundant with life, full of dolphins and whales, of penguins and sea birds, of turtles and manta rays. I’ve shared my belief that we can restore the health of the oceans; that it’s up to every one of us to protect our future. Why do I do what I do? I do it because I believe in protecting our fragile planet, in peace and injustice. I do it because it’s right. I do it because our souls need nature. And I do it as much for nature’s sake as for ours. TESTIMONIALS The dreams, the hardships, and the sheer heart behind Lewis’s expeditions will inspire you to rethink your own ‘impossible’. JACK CANFIELD – CO-AUTHOR | CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL Lewis’s speeches are riveting and passionate. He’s stunning! ARCHBISHOP DESMOND TUTU – NOBEL PEACE LAUREATE
