The California Theatre presents Tutti Frutti – The Little Richard Concert Tribute

A-wop-babaloo-balop-bam-boom! Tutti Frutti: The Musical – A Tribute to Little Richard (Concert Show) is a high-octane, 80-minute celebration of the “Architect of Rock ‘n’ Roll.” Following its acclaimed West Coast premiere, this concert version delivers a fast, loud, and soulful recreation of Little Richard’s legendary Hollywood performances—packed with hits like “Tutti Frutti,” “Long Tall Sally,” and “Good Golly Miss Molly.” Starring Emmy, NAACP, and Broadway World Award-winning performer Dedrick Weathersby, the show captures the vocal fire and electrifying showmanship that influenced generations.

Backed by a powerhouse live band, this concert experience brings the spirit of the 1960s “Club Okeh” era to life with nonstop music and undeniable energy. From the creators of Remembering James: The Life and Music of James Brown, this production is both a tribute and a celebration of a groundbreaking legacy.
