Founded in 2010 in Charlotte, North Carolina, Billy Joel 2 Elton John is billed as America’s first and longest-running Billy Joel & Elton John tribute show. In a dynamic two-on-piano format, frontmen Mike Santoro (Billy Joel) and Ronnie Smith (Elton John) perform with the backing of The Stranger, a live band that brings the stage-shaking energy and theatrical pop/rock piano magic fans love. The duo captures Joel’s heartfelt ballads and John’s showmanship, spanning hits from the 1970s to today. If you’re looking for a faithful, entertaining experience that feels like catching the real thing on a great night, this show delivers.
