Cheyenne Jackson in All Shook Up

The new musical uses some of Elvis' most popular songs - among them "Blue Suede Shoes," "That's All Right, Mama," and "Can't Help Falling in Love" - to tell the story of sparring lovers and surprise couplings in 1955 America.

Librettist Joe DiPietro, musical director/arranger Stephen Oremus, choreographer Ken Roberson and director Christopher Ashley are leading the production, which stars Cheyenne Jackson, through a series of try-out performances in Chicago, before heading to Broadway's Palace Theatre on February 20. Opening night is set for March 24.
