MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET Cast to Perform at Twinwood Festival, 28th August

There will be "One helluva party" (Magic 105.4) at this year's Twinwood Festival as the cast of smash hit musical MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET announce a special performance at the number one vintage, 1940s and 1950s, music and dance festival.

Celebrating its tenth year, Twinwood Festival boasts a top line-up of Swing, Jazz and Rock ‘n' Roll bands performing at the historic Twinwood Airfield near Bedford over the August Bank Holiday.

The cast will perform in the main arena on Sunday 28 August at 19.00, followed later in the evening by the audience's attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the largest swing dance.

The wonderful bowl arena has hosted some of the greatest swing bands as well as iconic rock ‘n' rollers such as original member of the ‘million dollar quartet' Jerry Lee Lewis, and more recent stars such as Imelda May. This year along with the cast from MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET the headliners are John Miller, The Jive Aces, Peter Donegan, Ben Waters, Si Cranstoun, Ray Gelato and the Swing Commanders, supported by over sixty more live acts throughout the weekend.

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET, the international hit musical that's "taking the West End by storm" (Daily Mail), tells the electrifying true story of Sun Records founder Sam Phillips and the night his ‘million dollar quartet' of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis played together for the first and only time. Packed with over 20 classic hit songs including Blue Suede Shoes, I Walk The Line, Hound Dog, and Great Balls of Fire, this "definite must-see" (Sunday Mirror) is performed live by an incredible cast of actors and musicians, whose talent and infectious energy have audiences dancing-in-the-aisles every night!

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET is produced in the West End by Relevant Theatricals, John Cossette Productions, American Pop Anthology, John Gore, Thomas B. McGrath, Joseph Smith and Michael McCabe.

Productions of MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET are playing simultaneously in London, New York and Chicago. A North American tour launches in October 2011.
