Four music legends. One unforgettable night. TUTS’ ‘Million Dollar Quartet’ is now onstage at Hobby Center, and it’s electrifying! The show takes you inside Sun Records on December 4, 1956, when Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins gathered for a once-in-a-lifetime recording. Filled with iconic hits like “Great Balls of Fire,” “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” and “Dound Dog,” this high-octane musical is part concert, part behind-the-scenes story—and 100% electrifying. Whether you grew up on rockabilly or just love a great beat, this is the must-see musical event that proves lightning really can strike once. Get tickets and more info online at Tuts.org. Watch as Lauren Kelly heads into the hair and wardrobe department with Costume Designer Colleen Grady, and Hair & Makeup Designer Jayson Kolbicz for an iconic Elvis makeover.
