Featuring a score by Bon Jovi's David Bryan, Memphis tells the true-life story of the forbidden love between Huey, a white radio DJ, and Felicia, a black R&B singer in 1950s Tennessee. The besotted duo face numerous obstacles, both in romance and in Huey's mission to become the first DJ to spin music by black and white artists on the same station. Fill your world with laughter, love and rock 'n' roll when Musical Theatre West brings the explosive dancing and irresistible songs of Memphis to Long Beach.
