Million Dollar Quartet is a new musical inspired by a true event in which four legendary musicians – Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis – got together for a session at Sun Records in Memphis.
A story of fame, friendship, discovery, divided loyalties, professional jealousy and incredible music, Million Dollar Quartet tells of the moment when four of the music industry’s most extraordinary talents, all in their creative prime, made music together for the first and only time in their careers. The date was 4 December 1956.
Million Dollar Quartet has a score that includes over 20 of the greatest records ever written, including Blue Suede Shoes, I Walk The Line, Fever, Great Balls Of Fire, Hound Dog, and Whole Lotta Shakin’ Going On.
