BWW Reviews: OC's 3D Theatricals Revives ALL SHOOK UP
Using almost all of the same cast and elements from their initial 2010 production of the Elvis musical ALL SHOOK UP (at its former home in the OC Pavilion in Santa Ana), the Orange County-based 3D Theatricals is once again mounting a newer, more rousingly-amplified revival in their new home at the Plummer Auditorium in Fullerton through May 29, 2011. The results? A cute, crowd-pleaser of a show performed by an awesome cast that beams their inherent silliness like a badge of honor.
