The Broadway musical “Million Dollar Quartet” premieres on stage at the Ocala Civic Theatre on May 27 and will run through June 27.

The musical recollects the true story of the iconic recording session that saw Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins come together at Sun Records in Memphis on the afternoon of Dec. 4, 1956 for an impromptu recording session – the first and only time the legends would record together.

The unforgettable day in music history is brought on stage with hit songs “Blue Suede Shoes”, “Fever”, “Great Balls of Fire”, “Walk the Line”, “Folsom Prison Blues”, “Hound Dog” and others.

The production is directed by Katrina Ploof, while Tom Ferriera serves as the stage manager.

Tickets are $30 for adults and $15 for spectators 18 and younger. Tickets can be purchased over the phone at 352-236-2274 or in person at the box office Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. For more information or to buy tickets anytime, visit ocalacivictheatre.com.
