Heartbreak Hotel
Everything from Tyler Hanes as the adult Elvis and Charles Adler Bischoff as Kid Elvis was very “All Right” opening night of Heartbreak Hotel at Marriott Theatre, Wednesday.
It didn’t matter if you were a longtime, silver-haired subscriber or twenty-something, first-time, theater goer. Age didn’t matter given audience reactions and applause to all the vocals from “Blue Suede Shoes” to “Can’t Help falling in Love.”
Directed and choreographed by Deidre Goodwin with musical arrangements and orchestrations by David Abbinanti, the entire production merited the long, standing ovation for the stars and ensemble.
The show is a reminder of why Elvis still lives in people’s hearts and memories.
BTW, his Graceland estate is worth a visit and it did have an airplane parked there as he mentioned he wanted.
Check out Graceland in Memphis if you have a chance.
