Johann's voice can be heard on various radio spots and his speciality is comic character voices and quirky offbeat roles...
Johann van der Walt
This is one of my own comic creations. A highly officious, disturbingly pedantic and rude man, vd Walt is a part-time Sheriff of the Court and full-time bumbling irritant ( not unlike a Basil Fawlty from De Aar). He is a stickler for rules and regulations and loves to instil order and style onto all that he encounters (and what is more stylish than a safari-suit??).
Both verbal and physical he interacts with crowds of any size and is ideal for breaking the ice at functions by welcoming people as a security official. Hugely popular, van der Walt has recently made a successful appearance at the Smirnoff International Comedy Festival to great acclaim...
Bliksem, maar die ou is Bakgat!
