Dekker Centre’s first act of the season coming next week
Performing arts season in North Battleford kicks off next week with a musical about four legendary musicians.
Million Dollar Quartet, set in 1956 during a historical recording session which brought together Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins, is close to selling out, according to Dekker Centre general manager Moe McGuinty.
“There’s only 30 tickets left for the show,” he said. “It’s going to be fun and people are going to be bouncing in the aisles because of the music.”
The show is put on by the Globe Theatre in Regina and is the third of their shows to come to the Dekker Centre. McGuinty said it’s great to bring a production by a Saskatchewan-based company to North Battleford. Two of members of the main cast are also Saskatchewan-born; Kevin Aichele as Johnny Cash and George Krissa as Elvis Presley.
