Cameron Sullenberger, pianist, singer, director, and co-founder of Revival Theatre Company, left a gaping hole in the arts community when he passed away a few weeks ago. His co-founder, Brian Glick reflects on the memory of his friend, before we talk about Revival’s upcoming show, “Million Dollar Quartet.”
The musical tells the true story of a memorable night when Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, and Carl Perkins jammed at Sun Studios. Local favorites Amy Friedl Stoner and Tad Paulsen Diane, Elvis’s girlfriend, and Sun Studio owner Sam Phillips, are joined by 4 men who are VERY familiar with this show, having performed it on national and regional tours. In fact, by the time this run ends, Jacob Barton (Elvis) and Nathan Burke (Perkins) will have performed this show 300 times!
The original two-week run has been compressed to just one week, so tickets are going fast. Get yours at www.revivaltheatrecompany.com or www.artsiowa.com.
