In the musical South African actor Perci Moeketsi plays Mandela and Perth’s own Tim ‘Timomatic’ Omaji plays political activist Sam Onotou.

We got s sneak peak of the show this afternoon and it’s looks pretty impressive. We also have a quick chat with Tim Omaji about his character and what attracted his to the role, where he told us this is the most dramatic role he’s ever undertaken.

Take a listen to our chat with Tim ‘Timomatic’ Omaji, tickets to Madiba – The Musical are available from Ticketmaster.
