Veteran actress Ilse Klink believes theatre is poised for a powerful resurgence as AI continues to reshape the entertainment landscape, arguing that audiences are increasingly drawn to real, lived experiences over digital imitation.

Best known for her roles in Isidingo, 7de Laan, Lockdown and Paradys, Klink tells Sowetan that this shift presents an opportunity for the industry to rethink storytelling.

She also unpacks how screenwriters can push the envelope on television by embracing more layered, daring and authentic narratives that better reflect the complexities of real life.
