The Playhouse will be clearing space for dancing at this high energy show! Les Greene is a 2024 Ameripolitan award winner and the voice of Little Richard in the 2022 film Elvis and its Grammy Award®-nominated soundtrack.

Greene’s voice sets him apart with its rich timbre and emotive delivery, cutting straight to the soul. Also a skilled songwriter, Greene crafts honest and compelling lyrics that celebrate love, loss, and the human experience. For this one-night-only performance, Les Greene & The Swayzees are poised to captivate audiences with its boundless energy and magnetic stage presence.
