ALL SHOOK UP
CORE Theatrics heats up the stage with Elvis and Shakespeare!Time to dust off your blue suede shoes! CORE Theatrics is
working on its latest summer musical, ALL SHOOK UP by Joe
Di Pietro, featuring the songs of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll,
Elvis Presley.
ALL SHOOK UP tips its hat to the Bard’s comedies Twelfth Night
and A Midsummer Night's Dream, with themes of unrequited love,
humorous confusion, and an ultimately happy ending.
A sleepy 1950s town is forever changed when Chad (Ulyber
Mangune) comes to town with his free spirit, leather jacket,
jeans and blue suede shoes. He also brings rockin’ music,
freedom, and, of course,
pelvis-shakin’. ALL SHOOK UP features
24 Presley classics, including "Jailhouse Rock” and “Heartbreak
Hotel.”
Twelfth Night begins with, "If music be the food of love, play on,"
and we guarantee that the powerful lyrics of Elvis’ legendary
songs will both rock you and invite you to love again! For all its
entertaining silliness, ALL SHOOK UP is a serious celebration of
being alive.
Appropriate for all ages, this one is sure to be an instant hit.
CORE Theatrics Artistic Director, Marianni Groves shares, “When
looking at a well-rounded musical theater education, it is
important for young adult artists to have the opportunity to
tackle and explore a juke box musical. Learning that unique
structure and being able to visit
the iconic lyrics of a musical
legend is a great and challenging
adventure. They not only get
to bring new life and light to them, but they also get the
chance to introduce new generations to these classics
and
leave them dancing out of the theater!”
Directed by Marianni
Groves and choreographed by Sheri Lewis
and musical directed by Paul
Linnes.
Will true love prevail? Will the power of music win in the end?
