Don your blue-suede shoes and get ready to be all shook up for Elvis: A Musical Revolution at HOTA

From the moment Elvis Presley stepped on stage at the Levitt Shell amphitheater in Memphis on July 30 1954, the world was transfixed – the hair, the hips, the infectious hooks! There was just something about his groundbreaking fusion of rock, blues and gospel that broke musical boundaries. Even today, Elvis is celebrated as a perpetual cultural icon whose legacy and music invite every new generation to shake, rattle, and roll. If you grew up listening to the king of rock and roll, get ready to get all shook up by Elvis: A Musical Revolution coming to the HOTA stage this weekend!

Get ready, Gold Coast. Elvis fever is coming in hot. If you’ve binged Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis and Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla more times than you care to count (guilty!), here’s your chance to relive the rebellion and trailblazing spirit of the undisputed king of rock and roll at Elvis: A Musical RevolutionComing to HOTA from June 15, this brand-new bio-musical, which is authorised by Elvis Presley Enterprises, features all of your favourite bangers, including ‘Jailhouse Rock’, ‘Hound Dog’, ‘All Shook Up’, ‘Heartbreak Hotel’, ‘Can’t Help Falling In Love’, ‘A Little Less Conversation’ and so, so much more.

This enchanting musical delves into the life of the legend, from his childhood in Mississippi to his triumphant ’68 Comeback Special, in spectacular rhinestone-encrusted fashion. Featuring an all-star Australian cast, including Rob Mallett (Home and Away, Singin’ in the Rain), dazzling choreography and some of Elvis’ greatest hits, you simply can’t help falling in love with this smash-hit production that pays homage to the one and only, Elvis Presley.
