Immediately following the final number of Million Dollar Quartet, the one-woman vocal phenomenon joined the cast onstage for the Carter-Cash duet. Bringing two hit Las Vegas productions together in a unique, one-night-only performance, audience members clapped and sang along to “Jackson,” coming to their feet at the end with tremendous applause.

This was the first time a guest performer has been invited to sit in with the Las Vegas Company for an on-stage jam session. In Chicago and in New York, Million Dollar Quartet has rocked out with performers such as Melissa Etheridge, Kathie Lee Gifford, Lesley Gore and Jerry Lee Lewis.

The Tony Award Winning musical, Million Dollar Quartet takes place on December 4, 1956, when Sam Phillips, the “Father of Rock ‘n’ Roll,” brought legendary musicians Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins together at the Sun Records storefront studio in Memphis for the first and only time.
