Inspired by the legendary DJ Dewey Phillips and set against a rock-and-roll score, Memphis follows a 1950s disc jockey who plays African-American music for his white listeners, and begins to fall for a talented black singer. The original Broadway production, which opened October 19, 2009 at the Shubert Theatre, garnered four Tony Awards including Best Musical.
