Million Dollar Quartet
Book by COLIN ESCOTT and FLOYD MUTRUX · Original Concept and Direction by FLOYD MUTRUX · Inspired by ELVIS PRESLEY, JOHNNY CASH, JERRY LEE LEWIS, and CARL PERKINS
Maine State Music Theatre and The Public Theatre proudly present a not-to-be-missed co-production of Million Dollar Quartet!
Maine’s own Scott Moreau Directs and portrays Johnny Cash, along with a cast of musicians who will transport you back in time to witness the birth of a sound that changed the world forever.
Step into the legendary night where rock ‘n’ roll history was made! On December 4, 1956, an extraordinary twist of fate brought Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Elvis Presley together in a recording studio in Memphis for one of the greatest jam sessions ever. This Broadway sensation MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET brings to life an irresistible tale of broken promises, secrets and celebrations. The electrifying musical features over 20 smash-Rock n’ Roll hits including “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Fever,” “Walk the Line,” “Sixteen Tons,” “Who Do You Love?,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Hound Dog,” and more.
As egos collide, dreams ignite, and the sound of a new generation roars to life, these icons navigate ambition, rivalry, faith, and fame — all set against a soundtrack that would define an era. What begins as a casual jam session explodes into a historic night of unforgettable music, raw talent, and rock ‘n’ roll revolution.
Presented by Maine State Music Theatre and The Public Theatre
