David Robinson Master of Ceremonies

Welcome to the MC world of the one and only David Robinson, a bilingual Master of Ceremonies, your English and Afrikaans MC of choice. My journey as a performer all started when I finished my Bachelor of Arts degree in Live performance from AFDA Film and Drama school in 2006. I used this training to pursue a career in the performing arts, and appeared in numerous TV adverts including Vodacom, Tropika, Nestlé, Debonairs and Standard bank to name a few. The excitement and adventure of performing while traveling then drew me in, and this is when I worked on the MSC Sinfonia as an entertainer and host for 2 seasons. The passion I have for talking in front of people was what made this experience so worthwhile, especially when hosting events for over 500 people at a time. Click here to see more.

We would just like to thank David Robinson for being the MC for our wedding 05-03:2021 at Shepstone Gardens. David knows how to entertain a crowd, he had all our guest entertained from start to finish. David has a way that just seems so effortless when he is in-front of a crowd. When picking our MC we thought we looking for someone that has no problem with crowds, can make people laugh and that can get the guests attention, David did not have to speak twice to get our guests attention. I would highly recommend David for any event, he sure knows how to get a crowd’s attention. – Shannon Jonker & Gabriel Jonker
