About the performance

A wonderful boy from the American South, with a bold smile and a guitar, conquers the world. He has everything: talent, appearance and a manager, who will soon make him King. The first international Total Star, with an image designed in the smallest detail.

And although he does not mention the problems of the 1960s and 1970s – equality, feminism, Vietnam war, racial segregation – his songs become hits. Private Elvis and scenic Elvis merge into one mass devoided of ideas, which anyone can carve a King of dreams … Presley is no longer a singer. He is a religion. Will you accept it?
