ORLANDO, Fla. — After selling out all three upcoming performances at Orlando Shakes, multitalented showman Nat Zegree has added a fourth performance of The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll at Orlando Shakes.

Tickets for The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll are now on sale for Saturday, June 7 at 3 p.m. His original show lineup on June 6-8 sold out well in advance.

“We are happy to announce an additional performance for Nat Zegree at Orlando Shakes,” said Artistic Director Jim Helsinger. “The demand has been very high, and we’re thrilled our patrons are just as excited as we are to witness Nat Zegree’s return to Shakes.”

The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll is part of Orlando Shakes’ 2025-26 concert series that features some of Central Florida’s finest entertainers performing in the Margeson Theater at Orlando Shakes, seating nearly 350 people.

Zegree is a multi-talented showman with such credits as playing Jerry Lee Lewis in Million Dollar Quartet for over 300 performances, Mozart in a live music production of Amadeus, and as a virtual singer for the Broadway hit Dear Evan Hansen. Zegree has also written 3 original musicals with Eric Holmes (CBS’s The Good Fight), including Fly More Than You Fall, which has received sold-out praise and 11 Broadway World awards in its pre-broadway engagements. This accomplished composer/recording artist will take Orlando audiences on a musical journey like no other in The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll.

“To see such an overwhelming demand for my show truly warms my heart,” said Nat Zegree. “I love the people of Orlando, and I love Orlando Shakes, so I could not be more excited to come rock it out with so many wonderful people! It’s going to be an absolute blast, guaranteed.”

Orlando Shakes will welcome the Bahamian Theater group, Shakespeare in Paradise, and their Music of the Bahamas August 2-3. A local favorite, Ricky Sylvia and The Buzzcatz, will perform two shows on September 27-28, and the concert series will wrap up with a Valentine’s Celebration February 14-15. Tickets are still available for all remaining concerts. To order, call 407-447-1700×1 or visit here.

The History of Rock ‘n’ Roll is sponsored by Janet & Bob Ziomek with additional support from Alvin Wang & Lorrie Culbertson.
