Walnut Street Theatre is kicking off its 215th season with a musical featuring 'The King,' with moves that will leave audiences all shook up.
"It's a really cool character to embody," says Lucas Pastrana, who plays Elvis Presley. "One of the most iconic things about Elvis was his look and his style."
And of course, the music is also iconic. Pastrana says many of Elvis' classic songs are performed in the musical, like "That's All Right, Mama," "Jailhouse Rock," and "Love Me Tender."Pastrana says audiences will see Elvis questioning his life choices.Pivotal moments in Elvis' life are portrayed through flashbacks.
"We see Elvis in many different forms. We see him as a performer. We see him as just a regular guy trying to navigate his life," says Pastrana.Pastrana says Parker thinks more about "financial gain" than being a passionate fan of Elvis' music."We really see Dixie kind of push him towards his goals and his dreams," says Pastrana.That same actress also takes on the iconic role of Priscilla Presley.
"It's an experience unlike any other," he says. "I can live that like rockstar fantasy through him in a way."Elvis - A Musical Revolution
