Elvis Costello Cast in Stephen King/John Mellencamp Musical

Elvis Costello is the most recent cast addition to the forthcoming Stephen King/John Mellencamp musical, Ghost Brothers of Darkland County.

The play will focus on “domestic turmoil” and already features an all-star cast, including Neko Case, Sheryl Crow, Rosanne Cash, and Kris Kristofferson.

T-Bone Burnett will produce a three-disc soundtrack to accompany the musical, and Costello will play “the role of a Satanic character.”

Lol!

Look for the play this September at Atlanta’s Alliance Theater.
