Four Legends. One Night. Music History Made. On December 4, 1956, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins had a chance encounter at Sun Records Studio in Memphis.
You may have loved Million Dollar Quartet in 2017 at Paramount Theatre – now imagine it set in Sun Studio itself. The new Stolp Island Theatre will be designed to immerse you in the experience so you can say “I was there!” On December 4, 1956, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins had a chance encounter at Sun Studio in Memphis. What transpired was one of the greatest impromptu jam sessions in music history. The music that filled the studio that fateful night delves into the foundation of Blues, Country, Rock and Rockabilly, including “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Walk the Line,” “Great Balls of Fire,” and more.
You’ll experience the highs and lows of these four legends as they navigate the intricacies of fame, and the personal price you pay to live the dream. This show will run until June of 2025 with available shows on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
