Step into the world of Sun Records and experience the rise of rock ‘n’ roll through the eyes of its legendary founder, Sam Phillips. Told through Sam, his assistant Marion Keisker, and the iconic musicians he discovered, Sons of Sun brings to life the stories and songs that changed music forever.
Featuring a three-piece live band led by John Kennedy, with Murray Cook on guitar and Paul Scott on bass, the show delivers 35 unforgettable hits from Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, and more, all performed live, capturing the raw energy of the Sun Records era.
Matt Charleston stars as the tenacious Sam Phillips, with Victoria Beck and Ben Maclaine taking on multiple roles, from Marion Keisker to Howlin’ Wolf. Developed by Kennedy since 2011 and paired with an evocative script by award-winning playwright Kieran Carroll, the production is brought to life under the direction of acclaimed Louise Fischer, seamlessly blending narrative and music into a compelling, original, and deeply moving rock’n’roll theatre experience.
A must-see for music lovers and theatre fans alike, this is the story of rock ‘n’ roll like you’ve never seen it before.
