Memphis the Musical Charlotte Nc Tickets
Musicals are getting their fair share of popularity these days signaling a quiet resurgence of theater. There are many older productions that are still popular with audience today and are still being widely performed along with newer additions that are carving out their own niche. One such production is Memphis the musical which has seen tremendous success and is being performed throughout the US including the Memphis the Musical Charlotte NC show in 2012.
The musical is based on the concept by theater producer the late George W. George. The musical has a loose connection with Dewey Phillips a real life Memphis disk jockey who was one of the first white DJs to start playing black music in the 1950s. David Bryan and Joe DiPietro became the architects that brought Memphis the Musical to life, directing music and providing the lyrics. The musical’s performances began in 2003 from the North Shore Music Theater in Beverly, Massachusetts and finally made a debut on Broadway in 2009 at the Shubert Theater. Much of the original pre Broadway cast including Chad Kimball and Montego Glover were retained and the musical did quite well. Memphis the Musical became the recipient of four Tony Awards including that for the “Best Musical” in 2010 and also won four Drama Desk Awards. Its nationwide performances began in 2011 and goes on in 2012 with the Memphis the Musical Charlotte NC show also on the cards.
