What Is It?
Jervis Pennington is best known for being a former teen idol and winner of the SABC’s 1983 National TV Talent Show
Follow That Star. He toured the country with his boy-band
The Soft Shoes and their No 1. song
Elvis Astaire, which reached no.1 on several local radio stations. But, what many people don't know about Jervis is that he really is an excellent song writer. His musical,
Scribble /Who really
freed Nelson? won five Naledi Theatre Awards including
Best Musical and
Best Music Score.
Now, Jervis is bringing his life story to the Market Theatre stage. His one man musical memoir,
An Extraordinary Life is both witty and heartbreaking. He tells it like it is - from famous to homeless and on to fearless, Jervis doesn't shy away from the truth. Performing a couple of his older songs, and some new, Jervis has been lauded as a stand-up comedian with the brooding gaze of a poet.
