Renowned Cape Town-based entertainer Jayson King is hosting ‘The Great Pretenders’ virtual concert on Friday, September 4, at 7pm.

This tribute show is a ninety-minute jam-packed musical journey down memory lane with popular hit songs originally recorded by Frankie Valli, The Stylistics, Engelbert Humperdinck, Natalie Cole, Shirley Bassey, The Platters, Gloria Gaynor and many more.

Commenting on the show King says: “We were scheduled to travel to Europe for the 2020 summer season but owing to Covid-19 and resulting bans on international travel and other restrictions all our engagements were immediately cancelled. He added: “Without a production budget the show was recorded with limited facilities at a nightclub in Cape Town. The energy, talents and dedication of “The Pretenders” ensured that the show must go on.“
