Event Details: The Platform at Chalfonte Theatre presents Igor & The Red Elvises on Tuesday, July 28, 2026. The evening features two 60-minute sets with a 10-minute intermission. Doors open at 6:00 PM and music begins at 7:00 PM. The Chalfonte Theatre offers a 50% discount on all ticket categories for youth ages 18 and younger. Igor & The Red Elvises are one of the most singular acts in American roots music — a band whose story begins in the Soviet Union, runs through a dream about Elvis Presley, and arrives somewhere between Siberian folk, surf rock, rockabilly, funk, and pure party. Since forming in California in 1995, the band has toured the world, appeared in major films and television series, and built a devoted cult following on the strength of their impossible-to-categorize sound and their live shows, which consistently turn any venue into a dance floor.
