Solihull Arts Complex

Multi-award winning Elvis tribute artiste Ben Thompson brings his acclaimed show, Elvis – The Ultimate Experience, to The Core Theatre for the first time.

Supported by a full live band, Ben Thompson is one of the select few Elvis artistes who has the ability to successfully recreate all the eras of the 'king of rock and roll'. 

Maintaining the authentic high energy performances and the charming charisma that trademarked Elvis' live shows has led to Ben travelling the world keeping Elvis' legacy alive, touring to Las Vegas, Memphis, Tupelo, Netherlands, Denmark, Ireland, Australia and extensively in Great Britain. 

In 2018, Ben was crowned Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Champion of Graceland, recognised as the 'world championships of Elvis'. 

Ben's growing attraction as one of the world’s leading Elvis acts was further enhanced when he featured alongside Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling as Elvis in the Hollywood blockbuster Blade Runner 2049. 

One of the many highlights of Ben's career is to have performed on stage alongside Elvis' original backing singers The Sweet Inspirations on various occasions.  

Elvis – The Ultimate Experience will be a non-stop extravaganza of all the classic Elvis hits, including: 'Jailhouse Rock', 'Heartbreak Hotel', 'Love Me Tender', 'Suspicious Minds', ''All Shook Up', 'Hound Dog', 'Blue Suede Shoes' and many, many more! 

Elvis – The Ultimate Experience is officially endorsed by Elvis Presley Enterprises.
