St Theresa School

Get ready to shake, rattle, and roll! On Saturday, May 30, 2026, acclaimed tribute artist Lamar Peters will electrify the stage at St. Theresa School Trumbull with his unforgettable Ultimate Elvis Tribute Show. Showtime begins at 7:00 PM (doors open at 6:00 PM) for an evening packed with hits, dazzling showmanship, and the timeless magic of Elvis Presley.
This one-night-only performance will transport audiences through the golden eras of Elvis—from the rockabilly roots of the '50s to the Vegas glitz of the '70s. Expect to hear fan favorites like “Jailhouse Rock,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “Suspicious Minds,” and “Burning Love”—all delivered with the uncanny vocals and magnetic presence that have made Peters a standout in the tribute world.
Born into a musical family in Astoria, NY, Lamar Peters took the stage at the age of five in his father, Gregg Peters (of King of Queens fame), Elvis shows. He’s since carved a remarkable path—the first Elvis tribute artist to play B.B. King Blues Club in Times Square, a top finalist in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Contest, and a national touring act.
Tickets: $45 each for this BYO food and drink event and are available now by calling Rich at <a href="tel:203-258-8668">203-258-8668</a> or by stopping in St. Theresa Rectory 5301 Main Street Trumbull M-F until 9:00am - 4:00 pm.
