Highlights From “Memphis” Starring Adam Pascal
Adam Pascal (“Rent,” “Aida”) joined the Broadway cast of “Memphis” in October, succeeding Chad Kimball in the role of ’50s disc jockey Huey Calhoun, the rebel who dares to play black music on a white radio station in the segregated South. Here’s a look at Pascal’s take on the Tony Award-winning musical’s final two songs: “Memphis Lives in Me” and “Steal Your Rock ‘n’ Roll.”

Memphis, the WINNER OF THE 2010 TONY AWARD® FOR BEST MUSICAL – is a Broadway musical with heart, soul and energy to burn. She’s a black singer whose career is on the rise, but who can’t break out of segregated clubs of 1950’s Memphis Tennessee. He’s a white radio DJ whose love of music transcends race lines and airwaves. When the two collaborate, her soulful music reaches radio audiences everywhere, and the Golden Era of early rock ‘n’ roll takes flight. But as things start to heat up, whether the world is really ready for their music – or their love – is put to the test.
