The city that Jerry Lee Lewis recorded “Great Balls of Fire” was Memphis, Tennessee.

Ngl, I legit thought at first that was Kratos. Hahahhaa

why use footage of the movie to talk about the stage show?

[mlggamer]

All right so now I can tell my mom where cats is from if she isn't aware although I'm pretty sure she knows that it's a play maybe she didn't know where it's from though. Great balls of Fire I have no idea where that was recorded probably in his hometown I don't know where that is but his hometown?

Edit: so apparently he was born in Louisiana so I'll say Louisiana

Lets see...I'm going to guess that the city was Nashville.

Les mis is not a Broadway musical. Yes, it's been on Broadway but it's probably best known on the West end.
