Based on a real-life 1977 incident in which three oddball characters tried to steal the late Elvis Presley's body out of the cemetery, "Law & Elvis" is also a screwball parody of the long running "Law & Order" TV series.
Caught red-handed in the graveyard with picks and shovels, Leroy, his dimwit cousin Billy Joe and an odd Cajun character named Zydigo plead their innocence while detectives Olivia and Elliott interview an audience pleasing line up of colorful characters to gather evidence for the no-nonsense prosecutor McCoy.
Highlights of "Law & Elvis" include a comic interrogation which features a sassy puppet public defender, a befuddled lawyer who discovers he's in the wrong show, an out-of-control makeup session that goes hilariously wrong, an elderly man-hungry witness who has to raise her right hook to be sworn in, and a show-stealing character who only speaks in incomprehensible gibberish.
The sweet, heart-filled ending surprised and delighted audiences from the first time "Law & Elvis" hit the stage. Approximately 35 minutes.
