Centre for the Arts Hosts “Elvis”

image003Centreville was rocking  as Johnny Seaton, a popular local performer, entertained a crowd of over 100 people at a benefit for Queen Anne’s County Centre for the Arts’ Building Fund. Guests arrived to find the auditorium transformed into a retro nightclub complete with café tables, subdued lighting, a dance floor area, and a dessert table fit for the King himself.

While Mr. Seaton is best known for his look-alike, sound-alike Elvis performances, his talents reach far beyond that. His songs and interaction with his audience are reminiscent of the night clubs of the sixties. His show brought back fond memories for many in the group and prompted many spontaneous sing-alongs.

The capacity crowd enjoyed the music and also had the opportunity to purchase works of art by Karen Cunningham, Gerry Czajkowski, and Stephanie Nadolski on display in the auditorium.

The evening was sponsored by Priceless Industries, Inc. and board member Sharon Dobson. Board Vice Chair Audrey Scott served as mistress of ceremonies. Proceeds benefit the Building Fund.
