Description
The hit musical Million Dollar Quartet is inspired by the famed recording session that brought together some of the biggest names in Rock'n'Roll for the first (and only) time: Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins.
On December 4, 1956, these four young musicians gathered at Sun Records in Memphis for what would be one of the greatest jam sessions ever. Million Dollar Quartet brings that legendary night to life, featuring a score of rock hits including "Blue Suede Shoes," "Fever," "That's All Right," "Sixteen Tons," "Great Balls of Fire," "Walk the Line," "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On," "Who Do You Love?," "Matchbox," "Folsom Prison Blues," "Hound Dog" and more.
Million Dollar Quartet plays at the Apollo Theatre in Lincoln Park and tickets are available online at ticketmaster.com, by phone at 1-800-982-2787, or in person at the Apollo Theatre (2540 N. Lincoln Avenue).
