Levi Kreis, known for originating the role of Jerry Lee Lewis in Broadway’s Tony-nominated musical “Million Dollar Quartet,” will give a concert at the Auditorio de la Ribera Saturday, February 25, 6 p.m. The role of the famous rock ’n’ roller won him the 2010 Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical, a 2010 Outer Critics Circle Award, and a 2010 Drama League nomination.
Kreis began arranging music for the show and preparing the role in 2004. His performance demonstrates that even the nuttiest of comedic characters can have a human longing, a vulnerability that endears us to their struggle, a truth that offers us hope.
Kreis executes his craft with profound vulnerability, a soulfulness that leaves you feeling as though you’ve experienced something deeply personal. In every area of his expertise, Kreis has been awarded for his commitment to the highest quality of entertainment. However, what people value most about Levi is how he makes them feel. To Kreis, art is a real life conversation that is healing as much as it is entertaining.
Kreis is a singer-songwriter whose piano-pop recordings have been featured in key moments on network television shows, including The Vampire Diaries, Sons of Anarchy, So You Think You Can Dance, Mob Wives, The Apprentice, Days Of Our Lives, Young And The Restless, and several films. With four albums to date and a 2009 Outmusic Award for “Stained Glass Window,” the theme song for the Del Shores film “Southern Baptist Sissies,” Kreis has built a humble but loyal following that continues to expand the reach of his own label, Imprint Vision 9 Records.
