MEMPHIS takes place in the smoky halls and underground clubs of the segregated 50's, where a young white DJ named Huey Calhoun (
Chad Kimball) fell in love with everything he shouldn't: rock and roll and an electrifying black singer (
Montego Glover). MEMPHIS is an original story about the cultural revolution that erupted when his vision met her voice, and the music changed forever.
MEMPHIS, the show that's currently blowing the roof off Broadway, stars Tony® nominee
Chad Kimball (Huey) and Tony® Nominee
Montego Glover (Felicia) with
Derrick Baskin (Gator),
J. Bernard Calloway (Delray),
James Monroe Iglehart (Bobby),
Michael McGrath (Mr. Simmons), and
Cass Morgan (Mama) opened on October 19, 2009 at Broadway's Shubert Theatre (225 W. 44th Street). Previews began on September 23rd.
The show features a Tony® winning score with music by Bon Jovi's founding member and keyboardist
David Bryan and lyrics by Bryan and
Joe DiPietro (I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change), who also pens the musical's Tony® winning book. MEMPHIS is based on a concept by the late
George W. George (producer of the Tony nominated Bedroom Farce and the film My Dinner With Andre), with direction by Tony nominee
Christopher Ashley (Xanadu) and choreography by
Sergio Trujillo, who is currently represented by an astonishing four shows on Broadway (Memphis, Jersey Boys,
next to normal and The Addams Family).
Full price tickets range from $41.50 to $131.50 (including a $1.50 facility fee). The performance schedule is as follows: Tuesday at 7pm, Wednesday - Saturday evenings at 8pm, Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2pm, and Sundays at 3pm.
