Placeholder Image

The Turlock Community Theatre is going to be bringing the sounds of Memphis to town when they open the doors on a tribute show to some of the music industry’s biggest icons.

“One Night in Memphis” is a rocking concert tribute to legendary Sun Records recording artists Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley.

The show is over 90 minutes of rockabilly, country, gospel and pure 1950’s rock and roll music performed live and backed by an authentic and energetic rockabilly backup band. Created and directed by John Mueller from the highly-acclaimed show, “Winter Dance Party” this show has met with the same accolades, including previously sold out performances and standing ovations.

Some of the songs included in the show are: “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Whole Lotta Shaking Going On,” “Shake, Rattle and Roll,” “Don’t Be Cruel,” and “Hound Dog.”

The show is set for 7:30 p.m. Sunday at the Turlock Community Theatre. Tickets are $29, $35, and $40 and are available at http://turlocktheatre.org.
