Million Dollar Quartet

The electrifying story of how four stars made rock ’n’ roll history

Rock ‘n’ roll icons Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins are brought together by an extraordinary twist of fate on a December evening in 1956. This meeting at Sun Records would become one of the greatest jam sessions of all time. Based on a true story, Million Dollar Quartet brings that momentous occasion to vibrant life featuring a glorious score of rock ‘n’ roll, gospel, R&B and country hits, performed live onstage by world-class actors and musicians. Songs include “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Fever,” “Walk the Line,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Hound Dog” and more. Don’t miss this irresistible tale of broken promises, secrets, and celebrations that is both heartwarming and hilarious in this award-winning smash-hit musical.

“Soul-stirring, good-time classics with a surprising amount of grit and soul!” – Chicago Tribune

“Wildly entertaining… wonderfully captures the spirit of these seminal figures who would go on to change the course of popular music.” – Hollywood Reporter
