Get "All Shook Up" At The Springfield Muni

If you love Elvis, get ready for the next Springfield Muni production.  All Shook Up begins a 3 week run Friday night.

We had a chance to speak with Jacob Deters, an SHG grad who plays "Dennis", Glenwood grad Sophie Lanser, who portrays "Natalie/Ed" and the director Anna Bussing.  It's her first time directing, but she's been part of the Muni family for years, first appearing as a kid on the lakeside stage.

Deters and Lanser also give us a sample of the dialogue and perform a song.

All Shook Up runs each weekend starting Friday July 11 through July 26.
