Million Dollar Quartet is a musical is based on a real-life recording session that occurred in 1956 at the Sun Records studio in Memphis, Tennessee. The session featured legendary musicians Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Carl Perkins, and is widely considered to be the impetus of future supergroups such as the Travelling Wilbury's and Crosby Stills, Nash & Young. Featuring classic country and R&B songs like "I Shall Not Be Moved" and "Don't Be Cruel," Million Dollar Quartet was first staged in 2007, and debuted on Broadway in 2010 to wild success, taking home Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, and Best Performance by a Featured Actor.

Opening at Playhouse Square in Cleveland, Ohio in October, the Million Dollar Quartet will be traveling throughout the United States, likely playing sold-out shows in whatever city they appear.
