What’s to be said about MDQ that we haven’t said before? The runaway hit musical which is now on Broadway has a new cast and an extended run right here in Chicago! Come see the story of how Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley played at Sun Records’ storefront studio in Memphis for the first and only time.
We are working with our friends at Allied Live to launch another poster distribution in Chicago. We’ve been promoting MDQ since it first began two years ago, and we couldn’t be happier with the shows success. With performances scheduled through September, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t see it!

We previously mentioned that we will be distributing coasters to bars and venues in and around the Apollo Theater in support of the latest show extension of MDQ. In addition to that, we are also targeting Chicago campuses including Columbia College, Loyola, and DePaul for a massive poster distribution. Our teams will be out hanging up posters which feature removable tabs that you will want to get your hands on since they allow students to purchase $20 tickets to the show. Be on the look out these next few weeks for the posters, and take advantage of this great deal!
Million Dollar Quartet is at the Apollo Theater through March 28th. Please visit www.apollochicago.com for more information.

Soon, the unstoppable Million Dollar Quartet will be debuting on Broadway. But, that doesn’t mean the curtain is closing in Chicago just yet. MDQ is back for another extension, this time through the month of March! We have played a significant role in the promotion of this production over the past year, doing everything from hand-2-hand distributions to banner back pack promos, to on-the-street video interviews. This time around, we’ll be distributing coasters to bars, pubs, theaters, and other venues in the city. If you happen to spot one, be sure to hold on to it in order to get an $8 discount on select tickets!

If you were at the annual Lights Festival or Thanksgiving Day Parade, there’s a good chance you saw folks wearing Million Dollar Quartet banner packs, and handing out flyers to people waiting patiently for the parade. That was us! We handed out thousands of flyers (that we printed in house!) which contained $8 off coupons for tickets. MDQ has been running strong for over a year now, and is about to make the jump to New York for a run on Broadway. We have been involved with the production from day one, and were happy to do a holiday push. If you haven’t checked it out, go and see the show that has become a musical sensation!
Million Dollar Quartet is at the Apollo Theater through January 3rd.

A few weeks ago, it was announced that the hit musical will be making its way to Broadway in the Spring. But don’t worry, because it’s not leaving Chicago just yet. Back for another extension, we’re helping out the show that has grown into a sensation by launching a poster distribution campaign through out the city. MDQ will be playing through the holiday’s, so be sure to see it before it moves out east!

The musical that no one can keep down is stronger than ever! Playing through the month of August thanks to multiple extensions, Million Dollar Quartet is still experiencing sold out shows and rave reviews. We’ve been organizing teams to travel all over the city to promote at various events and festivals including Ribfest, Volleywood, and starting this week the annual Movies in the Park. There’s a good chance you have seen or talked to our teams as they are conducting on the street interviews collecting testimonials, and testing people’s knowledge of MDQ. Be sure to purchase tickets while you can, because sooner or later, Elvis will have to leave the building.
Million Dollar Quartet is currentyly at the Apollo Theatre. For more information visit www.apollochicago.com.

Million Dollar Quartet tells the true story of how Elvis Presely, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis met in Memphis to record their one and only jam session together. Considered one of the greatest impromptu sessions of all time, the story is brought to life on the stage of the Apollo Theater for an extension due to popular demand. Be sure to catch it while it’s back, before it’s gone for good.
