Who's Million Dollar Quartet For?
Million Dollar Quartet is for rock 'n' roll fans first. You get Blue Suede Shoes, Great Balls of Fire, Walk the Line, Hound Dog and Fever, sung by the same actors who play them, and it ends as a full concert, so it suits anyone who'd rather see a gig than a musical.
It's a good pick for taking parents or grandparents out, because these are the records a lot of them grew up with and the encore is made for singing along. Families with children aged 8 and over who like live music will enjoy it too, and it's a shade over two hours with an interval.
It isn't for you if you want a strong plot. The story is one afternoon in a studio and a contract dispute, and the critics liked the playing a lot more than the script.
What Tickets Cost
Tickets start from around £20 and go up to around £120 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and around £145 on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The cheapest price is the same on every performance.
There are discounts on every performance up to Friday 23 October, of up to 49% on some seats, with tickets from around £15. The best of them need booking by 9 October.
The top price is for a small block of premium seats. The cheapest seats are in the Rear Stalls. For a group of ten or more, call us and we'll find you seats together.
About Million Dollar Quartet at The Arts at Marble Arch
The show opened on Broadway in 2010 and was nominated for three Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Levi Kreis won Best Featured Actor. It played the West End at the Noël Coward Theatre in 2011.
This is a different production, from the Barn Theatre in Cirencester, directed by Jonathan O'Boyle. The cast from its summer 2026 run at the Barn came with it to London. After London, it tours the UK from January 2027.
What to know before you go
The four leads play their own guitars and piano, with a double bassist and a drummer on stage beside them. Darren Day, as the studio owner Sam Phillips, tells the story and talks to the audience, and he doesn't sing.
At the end, it turns into a concert and everyone is invited to stand, clap and dance. If you'd rather stay seated, you'll be watching through a row of people standing up.
Age guidance is 8+, and anyone under 16 needs an adult with them. The show contains mild language, smoking on stage and scenes involving alcohol.
There are security checks on the way in and no cloakroom, so bring a small bag if you can.
What's Million Dollar Quartet About? The Story and the Songs
It's 4 December 1956, at the Sun Records studio in Memphis. Carl Perkins is booked in for a session, and one by one the others turn up and start playing together. Sam Phillips, who runs the label, has business of his own to settle with two of them before the night is out.
The four, and a song each is known for:
- Elvis Presley, played by Connor Payne: That's All Right and Hound Dog
- Johnny Cash, played by Christopher Erasmus: Walk the Line and Folsom Prison Blues
- Jerry Lee Lewis, played by Joe Bence: Great Balls of Fire and Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On
- Carl Perkins, played by Joey Bradick: Blue Suede Shoes
Elvis's girlfriend Dyanne, played by Jenay Naima, sings Fever and I Hear You Knocking. There are more than 20 songs in all, along with Sixteen Tons, Ghost Riders in the Sky and two gospel numbers the real four sang that night, Down By the Riverside and Peace in the Valley.
Performance Schedule
Million Dollar Quartet plays Tuesday to Sunday, with matinees on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. The Thursday matinee is handy if you're in London for the day midweek. There's no Monday performance.

Best Seats for Million Dollar Quartet
Rows D to G in the centre of the Front Stalls are the best seats and the dearest. You're close to the band and high enough to see over the rows in front.
The stage is low. One critic at a preview found floor-level moments hard to see past the heads in front, so the higher you sit, the less a tall person in front of you matters.
The Rear Stalls are the best value. The rows rise steeply there, so the view down to the stage is clear, if further away.
Every section is covered in the Tickets and Best Seats tab. Call us on 020 7193 9050 and we'll tell you what's left on your date.
Cast and Creative Team
Darren Day plays Sam Phillips, with Connor Payne as Elvis Presley, Christopher Erasmus as Johnny Cash, Joe Bence as Jerry Lee Lewis, Joey Bradick as Carl Perkins and Jenay Naima as Dyanne.
Jonathan O'Boyle directs, with a set by Libby Watson that turns the studio into something like a jukebox. The full company and creative team are in the Cast and Creatives tab.

At The Arts at Marble Arch, a new theatre on the Marble Arch island, London W1H 7DX. It's 2 to 3 minutes' walk from Marble Arch station on the Central line.
2 hours 5 minutes, including an interval. You'll be out at about 9:35pm after a 7:30pm show, 4:35pm after a 2:30pm matinee and 5:05pm on a Sunday.
Yes, with some licence. The four really did play together at Sun Records on 4 December 1956, and the tape was released in 1981. Most of what they sang was gospel, and the show adds hits from around that time.
Dyanne, Elvis's girlfriend, played by Jenay Naima. She's a character written for the show, based loosely on Elvis's girlfriend at the time.
8 and over, and anyone under 16 needs to come with an adult. There's mild language, smoking on stage and drinking.
In the middle of rows D to G, and the Rear Stalls for value.
Yes. All the music is played live on stage by the cast, bass and drums included.
Sam Phillips talks to the audience throughout, and at the end the cast invite everyone to stand up and dance for the encore.
Yes, until Sunday 6 December 2026. After London it tours the UK from January 2027. The Choir of Man follows it in the same theatre from 10 December.
No, neither the theatre nor the producer sets one, so wear whatever you're comfortable in.
You'll be let in at a suitable break, which can't be guaranteed. The production doesn't say in advance when those breaks come, so aim to arrive 15 to 20 minutes before the start.
None have been announced for this run. Access bookings are handled by the theatre's own team rather than by us, and our guide to The Arts at Marble Arch covers the step-free seats.
Tickets and Best Seats for Million Dollar Quartet
Prices depend on the day. Tuesday to Thursday, tickets run from around £20 up to around £120, all-in. Friday to Sunday, from around £20 up to around £145. Until 23 October, discounts take the cheapest seats down to around £15.
It's all on one level. Rows A to L are the Front Stalls, and the Rear Stalls start at row M.
Front Stalls, rows A to L
The middle of rows D to G has the best view in the theatre.
Rows A to C are right by the stage, and because the stage is low, you're almost level with it, so someone tall in front of you matters more. Row A is the only row you can reach without steps.
You get into these rows from either end. Each row is one step up from the one in front, and there are no handrails on the steps up the middle.
Rear Stalls, from row M
The Rear Stalls are up 13 steps with handrails, and split into sections by aisles. Each row is a big step up, so you see clearly over the people in front. You're further from the stage, but it's a compact theatre.
This is where the cheapest seats are, towards the back and the outer sections.
Wherever you sit, the seats are 40cm wide and the armrests lift away. For the last few songs the whole audience stands up, so you'll see the encore best on your feet too.

Million Dollar Quartet Reviews
The critics came out on Tuesday 15 September 2026, and nobody gave it fewer than three stars. Pink Prince Theatre and Fairy Powered Productions gave it five. BroadwayWorld, Musical Theatre Review, Theatre Weekly and LondonTheatre.co.uk were among those giving four, and the Guardian and WhatsOnStage gave three.
The critics agreed about the band. They praised the four as musicians whatever stars they gave, and Joe Bence's Jerry Lee Lewis was the one most singled out. BroadwayWorld's Franco Milazzo liked that Connor Payne's Elvis was gentle rather than a pastiche.
Where they differed was the script. Even some of the five-star reviews found the story thin, and the three-star ones held it against the show more. If you're going for the music, that matters less. The full round-up is in What the Critics Say.
