It’s 1968 and legendary rock n’ roll star Elvis Presley is about to launch the major musical event of the year – his live TV special in what would come to be known as The ’68 Comeback Special.

Drawing phenomenal ratings, this event re-establishes Elvis as the major entertainment star of the decade. A year later Elvis stars at the International Hotel in Vegas, performing live for the first time in seven years, and securing his place in history as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Next month at the Edinburgh Playhouse, This is Elvis celebrates 50 years since that TV phenomenon and is testament that his songs live on and the King still rules.

This Is Elvis recreates all the drama leading up to the comeback as well as staging the monumental concert. It then proceeds with the King to his Vegas debut. Featuring Elvis’s greatest hits including Trouble, Heartbreak Hotel, Blue Suede Shoes, Hound Dog,
Love Me Tender, All Shook Up, Suspicious Minds and many more…

Internationally renowned, award winning Steve Michaels stars as Elvis.

This is Elvis is at the Edinburgh Playhouse from Monday 12th February until Saturday 17th February 2018.

Tickets here.
