Biography

Angifi Proctor Dladla (born 24 November 1950 in Thaka township in Gauteng) is a South African poet, playwright, writing teacher and coach.
While in Geneva, as playwright-in-residence, he wrote Kgodumodumo, a play about traditional knowledge, and the protection of biodiversity. In 1997, he founded the Bachaki Theatre, and in 1998, the Community Life Network, a cultural organisation with a focus on community building. While teaching in the East Rand, he changed his name to Muntu Wa Bachaki to avoid persecution by the apartheid government.
