Illusions of the King

Keith Henderson, whose “Illusions of The King” show was the first sellout in the history of the 6-year-old venue The Roanoke Rapids Theatre, is bringing his tribute concert to the theater for the second time March 24, beginning at 3 p.m.

Event promoters promise a good show and are eager to bring Henderson back to a venue where he had such great success.

“With the success of Keith’s previous visit and the rave reviews he received, it was obvious he would return,” said promoter Jim Babson of Hilton Concerts. “The fans have requested he return to the theater.”

Henderson is an award-winning Elvis Presley tribute artist, who has said performing his tribute show comes natural to him.

“If I wanted to sing a song and not do it like Elvis, I would have to try at it,” Henderson said. “The voice I use in the show is my natural singing voice.”

Henderson’s vast knowledge of Elvis’ repertoire means no two shows are ever the same, and he is proud to bring the music of “The King” to a new audience and to bring back memories of Elvis to those who saw him previously. Henderson’s love for Presley’s music comes honestly, and he has referred to Presley as “the greatest entertainer who ever lived.”
