"MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET has been a hit at Harrah's Las Vegas since opening in February and we are excited for it to continue to entertain audiences in 2014," says Gary Selesner, regional president of Harrah's Las Vegas, Caesars Palace and Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino. "The beautiful, recently remodeled showroom at Harrah's is the perfect home for this incredible production that combines live music and a compelling, true story."

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET takes place on December 4, 1956, when Sam Phillips, the "Father of Rock 'n' Roll," brought legendary musicians Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins together at the Sun Records storefront studio in Memphis for the first and only time.

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET brings that legendary December night to life with the extraordinary story of secrets, betrayal, and the once in a lifetime celebration of four friends that is both poignant and funny. Relive the era with the smash-hit sensation featuring an incredible score of rock 'n' roll, gospel, R&B and country hits, performed live onstage by world-class actors and musicians. Showcased hit songs include: "Blue Suede Shoes," "I Walk the Line," "Great Balls of Fire,""Sixteen Tons," "Who Do You Love?," "Fever," "Folsom Prison Blues," "Ring of Fire," "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On," "Hound Dog," and more.

The Las Vegas production opened at Harrah's Las Vegas in February 2013 to critical and audience acclaim. The Las Vegas Review-Journal called the show, "Grade A: Just Plain Cool," Vegas Seven Magazine said it, "Hits the musical jackpot," and Robin Leach of VegasDeLuxe described the show as, "Exciting, enthusiastic and explosive."

The Chicago production of MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET opened in 2008 and is the longest running Broadway musical to ever play Chicago, performing to packed houses at the Apollo Theatre.

On Broadway, MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET won a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Musical and received two Tony Award nominations for Best Musical and Best Book of a Musical. The show received an Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical, a Drama Desk nomination for Outstanding Musical Revue and three Drama League nominations including Distinguished Production of a Musical and Distinguished Performance.
