As for the show, an event promotion stated, “Get ready for a holiday night of rockabilly, country, gospel and pure 1950s’ rock ‘n’ roll with ‘One Christmas Night in Memphis’ – a high- energy concert that takes you back to Dec. 4, 1956, the night when four of the biggest names in early rock ‘n’ roll —  Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash  — gathered together for an impromptu jam session at the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis. 

“This tribute to that memorable night in Memphis features nationally acclaimed cast members who have an uncanny sound, look and feel of the original legends; the production also features an authentic and energetic rockabilly backup band. This thrilling evening will make the audience feel as though they are witness to that history-making rock ‘n’ roll royalty jam session, with the legendary performers whose music has stood the test of time.”
