A popular musical is returning to Springfield with a holiday twist.
“Million Dollar Quartet Christmas” will be staged at the UIS Performing Arts Center on Wednesday, November 23rd. The original “Million Dollar Quartet” told the story of an impromptu jam session between Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins at the Sun Records studio in December of 1956. In real life, the quartet performed a handful of Christmas songs along with a lot of other material that night. The holiday version of the show emphasizes Christmas songs in the style of those rock and country pioneers. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday.
