Rowley returns for Holiday edition of 'Elvis: The Next Generation'

Elvis The Next Generation “Holiday Edition” comes to the Julie Rogers Theatre and stars Southeast Texas native Jake Rowley on Friday, Dec. 17.

Pre-sale tickets are on sale now starting at $29 through Thursday until 10:30 p.m. by using the code ELVIS. General on-sale begins Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster.com.

The largest selling Christmas album of all time was released Oct. 15, 1957 by Elvis Presley. Rowley, who portrayed Elvis in the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, "Million Dollar Quartet," will perform some of the favorite songs from that album along with many of Elvis' biggest hits.

This is not an impersonation, but rather a pure celebration of the music, the magic and the memory of the greatest entertainer of all time, that brings Elvis into the present. This show is great for the entire family, bringing his music to the Next Generation of Elvis fans.  

Produced by Penland Foundation Productions, proceeds will benefit Julie Rogers' "Gift of Life" Program, The 100 Club of Southeast Texas, Texas Children's Hospital and The University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center.
