All Shook Up showing through Friday

All Shook Up, a musical based on Elvis Presley tunes, runs through Friday, June 18 in the Hansen Theatre. When a hip-swiveling, guitar-playing roustabout gets out of prison, he roars into a dusty Midwestern town where excitement is outlawed under the Mayor’s strict rules: no tight pants, no public necking, and no loud music – especially of the Elvis variety.
