Any show which promises the music of Elvis Presley is bound to be a fun presentation. However, whilst Love Me Tender does indeed base its musical score on many of the King's greatest hits, the story itself is less about Graceland's finest and more about the subject of love and how a number of aspiring relationships stem out of just "One Night".

Love Me Tender, a new show which was first shown on Broadway, sees the lead character Chad (Ben Lewis) leave jail after "exciting" the ladies in that town, only for him to move onto the next place with the same intentions in mind (we aren't told which towns they are, by the way). Clad in a biker vest and jeans, he is clearly positioned as the star of the show, at least in terms of his profile within the story.
