About

My name is Taku Mbudzi and I love to tell stories — give me a pen, a microphone or a camera and I’ll have something to say. I’m fired up about authentic voices telling their own stories and enjoy using humour to help young people speak up and out for themselves.

I’m constantly re-discovering who I am as an artist. I’m exploring, experimenting and playing, unlocking unexpected joys in my writing life.

I often capture my writing adventures on audio, so tune in to Two Words with Taku, wherever you find your fave podcasts and subscribe to join our podcast community.

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” - Nelson Mandela

Amen to that! 🙌🏾

Thanks to everyone who supported my impossible dream! Here are the final four minutes from my show where EVERY night, over five days, the audience was ready to FIGHT Phil for me. Omg! 🤣

My heart is full and now God has me looking at the other impossible dreams on my bucket list saying, “They’re not impossible enough.” (Um, okay, what?!😳)

I’m taking some time to process that and ALL the overwhelming love and joy from the show.

It’s a lot.😩

Thanks to the amazing team behind the scenes who helped me:

Consulting Director: Akwasi Osei-Tutu
Stage Manager: Tino Nyoni
Production Consultant: Janet McLeod
Sound Consultant: Dale Gorfinkel
Costume Consultant: Karine Larché
Makeup Consultant: Juedd Mari
Marketing and Publicity Consultants:
Esther Fwati, Beverley Natasha, Dianne Morris
Show Publicity Images: Catherine Black

Lastly, a special shout out to:

@sheamoisture.australia for sponsoring the door and raffle prizes every night so winners could glow beyond the show.💆🏾‍♀️

@lamamatheatre for their team’s whole-hearted, full-bodied excitement and genuine support from Day 1.

And to one of my faves…

@msniasha for blessing me with her empowering song ‘Boss Queen’ as the intro and outro anthem for my show. Those vibes STILL have me walking different. 🎶💪🏾

Seriously…My. Heart. Is. Full. Thank you, all! 🩵😭✨
