Ben Goddard, Robert Britton Lyons, Bill Ward, et al. Set for Million Dollar Quartet in London

Complete casting has been announced for the London production of the musical Million Dollar Quartet, which will play the Noel Coward Theatre, beginning February 8, with an opening set for February 28.

The complete company for the show will feature Ben Goddard (Jerry Lee Lewis), Derek Hagen (Johnny Cash), Francesca Jackson (Dyanne), Robert Britton Lyons (Carl Perkins), and Michael Malarkey (Elvis Presley), as well as the previously announced Bill Ward as Sam Phillips.

The company will also include Steven Bor, Justin Brett (Alternate Johnny Cash), Sharon Clancy, Matthew Empson (Jerry Lee Lewis at certain performances), Gez Gerrard (Jay Perkins), Kevin Mains (Elvis Presley at certain performances), Adam Riley (Fluke), and Oliver Seymour-Marsh (Carl Perkins at certain performances).

The musical is inspired by the December 4, 1956 recording session that brought together Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Elvis Presley. It is co-authored by Floyd Mutrux and Colin Escott, and directed by Eric Schaeffer, with musical direction by Chuck Mead.

The show features a treasure trove of the greatest rock, rockabilly, gospel, R&B and country standards of the 1950s, including “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Fever,” “Sixteen Tons,” “Who Do You Love?,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Ghost Riders in the Sky,” and “Whole Lotta’ Shakin’ Goin’ On.”

The creative team includes Derek McLane (scenic design), Jane Greenwood (costume design), Howell Binkley (lighting design), Kai Harada (sound design) and Chuck Mead (musical arrangements and supervision).
