Way down from European tour

Published on 7th August 2008 in Ents

Elvis impersonator Mark Summers has vowed to leave his audience 'All Shook Up' when he performs his tribute to the King of Rock 'n' Roll at the Abbey Leisure Centre in Selby.

Fresh from his European sell-out tour, Mark has returned home for a 2008 UK tour.

The Selby leg will be held on Saturday, August 16.

Considered one of the sexiest Elvis tributes on the circuit, Mark is young, fresh and exciting, with a dynamic charisma on stage that would have done the King proud.

On the stage, radio and television, the 25-year-old performer has performed Elvis songs from all the eras, including his 1950s hits during the GI years, classics from the King's 1968 Comeback Special, and the Vegas years.

Mark, who performs in a variety of Elvis costumes direct from the USA, has recently been performing in the UK theatre tour of The World's Greatest Elvis Concert.

Now is your chance to see Mark in his own spectacular Elvis show, featuring special guests from around the UK.

His tribute to the ultimate performer of the 20th century will be the first time Mark has performed in the area.

Mark's performances have been described as "amazing" by the The Daily Mail and "fantastic" by The Sun.

And, after one particularly riveting performance, Reveal Magazine cooed: "Elvis Is Alive".

Mark said: "I want to show people what Elvis is all about. It's amazing how we attract the young and old crowd - the show definitely has something for everyone." Mark has worked and performed with members of the Elvis TCB band, Memphis Mafia and Presley Family.
