Following its critically acclaimed, extended run at the Barn Theatre and as its London season gets underway at The Arts at Marble Arch: powered by TodayTix, it has been announced that Million Dollar Quartet will embark on a major UK tour in 2027, led by stage and screen favourite Darren Day as Sam Phillips, the visionary producer who created the sound of rock ’n’ roll.
The production will open at Wales Millennium Centre, Cardiff on 26 January, before touring to Southend, Liverpool, Glasgow, Bromley, Ipswich, Cheltenham, Darlington, Bradford, Windsor, Derby, Eastbourne, Swindon, Aberdeen, Portsmouth, Hertford, Carlisle, Crewe, Wolverhampton, Fareham, Blackpool, Chelmsford, and Malvern.
Million Dollar Quartet, with a book by Colin Escott and Floyd Mutrux, is directed by Jonathan O’Boyle, with choreography by Joanna Goodwin, set and costume design by Libby Watson, lighting by Alex Musgrave, sound by Nick Lodge, musical supervision by Lee Freeman, and casting by Harry Blumenau.
CEO and Artistic Director of the Barn Theatre, Iwan Lewis, said: “The greatest night in rock ‘n’ roll history is going on the road! From the Barn Theatre to the West End and now across the UK, Million Dollar Quartet’s extraordinary journey continues. Seventy years after four legends made music history, their music is still bringing audiences to their feet. We couldn’t be prouder, and the party is only just getting started!”
