MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET ON TOUR:
Hot on the heels of its Broadway run, rock and roll musical Million Dollar Quartet is on the road to tell the story of the fateful meeting between Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash at an impromptu jam session in December of 1956. The musical focuses on these newcomers before they became icons, gathered for a rare collaboration at Sun Studios in Memphis. The cast brilliantly portrays the original performers while playing each timeless track with perfection and ease. Million Dollar Quartet will have fans all shook up this summer with their red-hot 2014 tour dates.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Million Dollar Quartet tells the story of four Southern rock legends who unexpectedly came together in 1956 for a very spontaneous recording session at Sun Studios. Since its 2007 premiere, the electrifying production has graced theaters across the US, landing on Broadway in 2010 for an acclaimed year-long run. Nominated for three Tony Awards including Best Musical, Million Dollar Quartet transports audiences back in time to the golden age of rock and roll with an iconic collection of hits that will leave fans feeling like a million bucks.

You can find plenty of reviews for this show online- and all of them are spot on- this play is amazing! If you are a fan of the music of this era- this play is a MUST SEE. The actors are incredibly talented, play their own instruments, and do these musical icons of the past PLENTY of justice. Just a great show from start to finish- you won't be disappointed!
Loved the venue. Great talent all around! So glad we got to see it before they left Chicago!
This was my second time seeing the show and I absolutely loved it. I think the second time was better being familiar with the music. The Chicago cast was so good.
