WHO WE ARE

Not a performance.
A movement.

The 116 Collective is the creative expression of One6Teen Foundation — a community of young performers who have been formed, disciplined, and equipped not just to perform, but to carry something worth saying.

Every member of the Collective is part of the One6Teen formation journey. They have been through the Circles, the camp, the mentorship. What they bring to your stage is not rehearsed entertainment — it is genuine transformation made visible.

When you book the 116 Collective, you are not just booking talent. You are investing in a generation and giving them a platform to say — unashamed — who they are.

THE FOUNDATION PRINCIPLE

Formation through exposure. Exposure through excellence.

Every performance is a formation experience for the artist and an encounter for the audience. We don't just fill a slot on your programme — we leave something behind.

The disciplines of
the Collective.

🎤

VOCAL PERFORMANCE

Solo artists and ensembles. Contemporary gospel, worship, R&B, and original compositions rooted in identity and faith.

🎸

LIVE MUSIC

Full band capability. Our musicians are formed in discipline and excellence — they play for an audience and for something greater.

🎙️

SPOKEN WORD

Poets and spoken word artists who carry real stories — of fatherlessness, identity, hope, and courage. Impossible to ignore.

💃

MOVEMENT & DANCE

Expressive movement that communicates beyond words. Formed in the same values — discipline, creativity, presence.

🎭

CREATIVE ARTS

Visual arts, mixed media, and creative performance. The Collective is a full creative community — not just a stage act.

🎹

WORSHIP SETS

Full worship experience for church events, corporate prayer breakfasts, and faith-based conferences. Authentic, powerful, present.

WHERE WE PERFORM

Built for real
platforms.

CORPORATE EVENTS & GALAS

Annual dinners, year-end functions, awards ceremonies, staff events. We bring excellence and a message that resonates far beyond entertainment.

EMBASSY & GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONS

High-profile diplomatic and government events. The 116 Collective represents the best of South African youth — formed, disciplined, and unashamed.

CHURCH & FAITH EVENTS

Conferences, prayer breakfasts, youth nights, and worship evenings. We carry the same spirit that formed us — into your congregation.

COMMUNITY & SCHOOL EVENTS

Graduations, community celebrations, and school events. When young people see the Collective on stage, they see what is possible for themselves.

FUNDRAISING & CHARITY EVENTS

We partner with other nonprofits and causes. Performance that raises awareness, funds, and hope simultaneously.

PRIVATE & BESPOKE EVENTS

Weddings, private celebrations, milestone events. We tailor every performance to the occasion, the audience, and the atmosphere.

WHY BOOK THE 116 COLLECTIVE

More than
entertainment.

FORMATION FIRST

Every performer has been through One6Teen's formation framework. What they bring to your stage is the overflow of a genuine journey — not a rehearsed act.

DUAL IMPACT

Your booking funds the formation of the next generation AND gives current members a real platform. Two investments in one — your event and their future.

PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE

Discipline is a One6Teen value. The Collective arrives prepared, professional, and punctual. We treat your stage with the same respect we bring to everything we do.

A MESSAGE WORTH CARRYING

Romans 1:16 — unashamed. Every performance carries something worth saying to every person in the room. Your guests leave with more than they arrived with.

FLEXIBLE & SCALABLE

From a solo acoustic set to a full ensemble with band — we scale to your event, your venue, and your audience. We work with your brief, not against it.
