By Virginia Cate and Duke Ernsberger.  On December 20, 1970, Elvis Presley disappeared.  No one, not even his longtime manager “Colonel” Tom Parker, knew of his whereabouts.  Taking this actual event as inspiration, this campy comedy turns Presley's disappearance into a high stress situation for Parker, who owes a huge gambling debt to a Vegas mobster.  The mobster wants Elvis to perform for his wife's birthday party, scheduled for the next day.  Parker must scramble to find the missing superstar or create a new Elvis in less than 24 hours.  Do two Elvis impersonators equal one King of Rock and Roll?  Come find out in this comedy of “Kingly” proportions!
