WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
A new musical comedy set in 1955, All Shook Up is not a biographical revue. Somewhere in middle America -- one girl's dream and a surprise visit from a mysterious leather-jacketed, guitar-playing stranger will lead a small town to discover the magic of romance and the power of rock & roll. This irresistible new musical features 24 legendary Elvis classics including "Heartbreak Hotel," "Love Me Tender," "Don't Be Cruel," "Can't Help Falling in Love," and "All Shook Up."
