345 Washington St St. Paul

MEMPHIS takes place in the smoky halls and underground clubs of the segregated 50’s, where a young white DJ named Huey Calhoun fell in love with everything he shouldn't: rock and roll and an electrifying black singer. MEMPHIS is an original story about the cultural revolution that erupted when his vision met her voice, and the music changed forever.

  Memphis Reviews

Star Tribune - Recommended

"...Nonetheless, Bryan has built some strong chord progressions that provide enough melody for the vocalists to fly high on their own. These musical high points come at the right times to distract us from the story's humdrum."

How Was The Show - Highly Recommended

"...The songs are brilliantly performed: Quentin Earl Darrington as Delray has an astonishing basso voice and a stern (and perfect) presence. Will Mann plays Bobby (and sings) with a lithe under-stated delicacy belying his size. Julie Johnson is a hoot as Mama; her “Change Don’t Come Easy” is a masterpiece of comedy. As Felicia, the smoldering Felicia Boswell controls the show with passion and fervor that will take your breath away."
