Frontman Jason Cohen rocked the stage as Jerry Lee Lewis in the national tour of the Broadway musical Million Dollar Quartet, lighting up over 80 cities across North America. Along the way, he discovered an insatiable hunger for the timeless magic of retro rock and roll—a sound that bridges generations and brings people together from coast to coast.
Now, Jason and his co-stars from Million Dollar Quartet are setting stages ablaze with their electrifying fusion of theatre and music. From California to New Jersey, Vegas to Manhattan, their high-octane performances take audiences on a journey through 1950s rock and roll, the soulful sounds of New Orleans street jazz, and fresh takes on holiday classics. Whether you’re here for the nostalgia or the sheer excitement, The Shakedown Shuffle delivers an evening like no other!
After playing Jerry Lee Lewis in “Million Dollar Quartet” in over 75 cities, Jason Cohen brings his ivory-smashing, high-energy performance to a new theatrical concert. As the stories he shares tell us, Cohen found connection with ‘The Killer’ through the music. Alongside his multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist band of singer-musicians, the audience will be quickly reminded of the power of those tunes. Featuring songs of Lewis’s contemporaries such as Elvis, Cash, and Buddy, as well as the New Orleans and gospel traditionals that inspired Lewis, Great Balls of Fire will have the audience dancing, singing, and saying “goodness gracious – when can we buy tickets again?!”
