On December 4, 1956, history was made when these four star musicians gathered at Sun Records in Memphis, the studios of legendary record producer Sam Phillips, for what would be one of the greatest jam sessions of all time.
Million Dollar Quartet brings that legendary night to life, with its extraordinary story of broken promises, secrets, and the once-in-a-lifetime celebration of four acclaimed recording artists.
This poignant musical features a score of more than 24 legendary rock hits including Blue Suede Shoes, Fever, That’s All Right, Sixteen Tones, Great Balls of Fire, Walk the Line, Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On, Who Do You Love?, Matchbox, Folsom Prison Blues and Hound Dog.
The stage production is written by Colin Escott and Floyd Mutrux, directed by Olivier nominated Ian Talbot OBE, and includes designs by David Farley, lighting by David Howe and sound by Ben Harrison. The UK tour is produced by Mark Goucher and Laurence Myers.
Don't miss your chance to be a fly on the wall of fame and history, and join in the celebration of this red-hot rock 'n' roll band for one unforgettable night!

Peter Duncan (Sam Phillips) actor, presenter, documentary maker, former Chief Scout and two-time Blue Peter man, has a TV, film and theatre career that spans four decades.
He became best known for his daredevil approach to life when he joined the Blue Peter team in 1980. He ran the first London Marathon in just over three hours, fought a sumo wrestler in Japan, cleaned the clock face of Big Ben and escaped from a forest fire in Canada. He was awarded a Gold Blue Peter badge for his volunteer work as leader of the UK’s half a million scouts.
Peter began his career on stage joining Olivier’s National Theatre and spent the 70s working exclusively as actor. He has appeared in many musicals including Barnum, Me and My Girl and The Little Tramp. In 1995 he was nominated for an Olivier Award as Best Actor in a musical playing Denry Machin in The Card. Recent stage credits include Charlie Peace at Nottingham Playhouse, Birdsong on UK Tour, and Macbeth and Fantastic Mr Fox at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre.
In his own series Duncan Dares he entertained with stunts such driving across the Irish Sea in a VW Beetle, walking the high wire and lying on a bed of nails with a tarantula and a python on his chest. In 2001 he produced a six-part documentary series called Travel Bug for the BBC in which he, his partner Annie and their four children backpacked their way around the world.
His work as an actor on TV has included The Childhood Friend, Sons and Lovers, Renoir My Father, Warship, Fathers and Families, Sam, Fallen Hero, Survivors, King Cinder, Oranges and Lemons, The Flockton Flyer, Space 1999. His feature film credits include Stardust, Quilp, and a famous cameo in Flash Gordon when he was bitten by a tree monster and died.
