The name’s Thato Akoonyatse.
I am a final year Bachelor of Arts student currently studying to obtain a degree in Live Performance, majoring in both screen and stage acting at AFDA Botswana. Besides acting, I am also quite passionate about script writing and directing for short films and stage plays.
During my spare time I enjoy reading a variety of fictional books, attending local plays, playing rugby during the weekend (for a local rugby club) and simply having a good time.
I look forward to interacting and networking with many other creatives and talented people from all corners of the globe.

In 2018 I established a production company called Bravado Arte’, where I brought together a group of film and performance students to collaborate together. I then wrote, produced and directed two short films that made it to the Botswana Film Festival and became the youngest Writer & Director for that year.
During the same year, I landed a lead role in a local drama series ‘Phases’ as well as a supporting role in a locally produced movie ‘Chief’, all while balancing my student life.
Notes-
Lead role in local Botswana drama series “Phases”.
Supporting role in local Botswana movie “Chief”.
Supporting role in local Theatre play “Another Devil on the Cross”.
Wrtiter, Producer and Director of “One More shot” and “The Break up Project”.
Etc.
