  • Million Dollar Quartet” by Colin Escott & Floyd Mutrux at the Hippodrome Theatre Through December 2
    “Million Dollar Quartet” By Colin Escott & Floyd Mutrux At the Hippodrome Theatre through December 2 By James Cooper MEMORIES ARE MADE OF THIS … PRODUCTION Flashing lights, shimmering jackets and long musical solos radiate through the production of “Million Dollar Quartet,” now at the Hippodrome Theatre. Though the special effects and costumes are beneficial in some instances, the show lacks emphasis in the one area it should stress the most: the music. The whole story focuses on the decisions of four major musicians from the 1950s: Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley. Music is the main concept within the script, but it certainly isn’t the main concept within the performance. The show focuses on a single event: the night that all four musicians of the “Million Dollar Quartet” were present in the same space at the same time, the Sun Records Studio in Memphis on December 4, 1956. Elvis (Cody Slaughter) used to be a member of the Sun Records family but then he switched to RCA, a bigger label. Since this change, Elvis has lost contact with his former producer, Sam Phillips (Vince Nappo). As Elvis returns with his girlfriend Dyanne (Kelly Lamont) he makes it clear to Sam that he wishes he had stayed at Sun. Sam too wishes that Elvis had stayed, but his main focus is now on producing Johnny (David Elkins) and the up-and-coming Jerry Lee (Martin Kaye). All the while Carl (Robert Britton Lyons) has to decide whether or not he wants to leave Sun Records or move on to Columbia.

  • Reliant Creates New Holiday Tradition Illuminating the At&T Performing Arts Center
    November 18, 2013 RELIANT CREATES NEW HOLIDAY TRADITION ILLUMINATING THE AT&T PERFORMING ARTS CENTER Southwest Airlines® To Host Concert Featuring Recording Star Jack Ingram and Fireworks Spectacular (DALLAS) Reliant will light up a new holiday tradition at the AT&T Performing Arts Center on Friday, December 6. The Reliant Lights Your Holidays event will feature a dazzling display of lights on the Center’s iconic venues and trees in Elaine D. and Charles A. Sammons Park as well as a snow-filled play area. Southwest Airlines Holiday Concert and Fireworks Spectacular will headline with country star Jack Ingram and the largest fireworks display ever held at the Center. Mayor Mike Rawlings will be joined by Sicily Dickenson, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Reliant, to help flip the switch and illuminate 250,000 holiday lights across the Center’s campus. The length of the lighted strands would stretch 6.54 miles and are highly energy efficient LEDs custom made for the Center. The lights, which will remain on throughout the holiday season, will outline the Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House, Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre, and 72 trees in Elaine D. and Charles A. Sammons Park. “Fun and unique holiday events like these are important to establishing downtown as a place where people want to live and work,” Mayor Rawlings said. “The lights, fireworks and snow-filled playground will really make the AT&T Performing Arts Center all the more magical. We are thrilled that Reliant is making this possible in the heart of the Dallas Arts District and look forward to this becoming an annual event.” Reliant’s sponsorship kicks off a three-year partnership with the Center for this extensive holiday showcase.
