Written on May 19 2012First class entertainment for start to finish. High energy. Made you want to stand up shout and dance.
Written on May 18 2012The music was awesome, the actors played their parts to a T, my favorite was Cody Slaughter who played Elvis, my wife loved Derek Keeling who played Johnny Cash.I must say Lee Ferris who played Carl Perkins played a mean guitar and Martin Kaye who played Jerry Lee Lewis played a gr8 piano.We loved the show and if you liked the music from that era you will loved the show to.
Written on May 18 2012Cast was terrific. Every one was believable as Elvis, Johnny, Carl or Jerry Lee. Music was great. Anyone wanting a two hour trip down memory lane or to learn more about early rock and roll will truly enjoy MillionDollar Quartet!
Written on May 18 2012It was a great show. Nice music and performances. Love the singers, piano player and drumer. Especially enjoyed how the the bass player who played the bass so fluently, lifted up the bass and flip the bass like a guitar. It was amazing. Loved how the piano player who played the piano backward. Very nice performance. Of course, enjoyed the "Elvis", the voice, the costume, the leg movements, just like the Elvis. Love the "Elvis" who stood up with his toes and bended his back backward. Wow, that was not a easy posture, but "Elvis" did it. It was so wonderful and great. Very well worth it.
However, the first part of the play talking section was a little bit long. Even though knowing it's important to point out what had happened before, still would love to hear more songs and a bit less talking. Guess the songs were the things that attracted the attendencce.
Thank you all for the great performance.

Description
What is Million Dollar Quartet like?
While the show doles out plenty of rock ‘n’ roll history during its 90-minute running time, the information is served alongside exuberant rock hits by each of the four artists, ensuring that Million Dollar Quartet is much more musical spectacle than college course. The production is light on plot, breezing through career highlights to get to what matters most: the music, which is performed with reckless abandon live onstage by the cast. Audiences with an affinity for classic rockabilly will be hard-pressed not to be drawn in by the stars, who embody their respective characters down to the very last pelvic gyration or piano pounding.
Is Million Dollar Quartet good for kids?
This show is a kid-friendly celebration of music that the entire family can enjoy. While definitely not a show made especially for children—the production aims for the hearts of those who grew up twisting and shouting—the production’s up tempo numbers come in rapid succession and the plot is easy to follow. There is some sexual innuendo, smoking and drinking, but the show is almost as clean as The Ed Sullivan Show. This one is an excellent primer for future music junkies.
