Additional Comments: If you are looking for a rocking good time at the theater I hope that Million Dollar Quartet plays in your town.  The story of a jam session at Sun Records in Memphis in 1956 with Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins.  Great music, great story.  People were dancing in the aisles.  The traveling company that came to Seattle was downright amazing.  I took my mom on Saturday afternoon and she was just singing along and clapping her hands.  It is great fun.

Here's the answer to the question of Dyann.  Apparently, TPTB decided to invent a girlfriend for Elvis because he had a date present at the infamous recording session but years later no one knew who she was.

    It was here last summer.  The cast did a lunch hour performance of some of the songs at a shopping/office complex downtown.  So talented!  The female singer was really impressive, what a set of lungs she had.

  • Yes, the female singer here had a great voice. I only wish I knew who she was portraying. They only identified her as Dyanne and that Elvis met her in California. How nice that they gave a performance for free! rushlan
