Experience the music, magic and memories in one incredible performance with Beatlemania Stage Show. Featuring an all-star cast of the nation’s most talented musicians, the production brings all generations together to celebrate the Beatles. ACT I – Coming To America 1964 was a year of change and confusion for America, still mourning the death of President Kennedy and waiting for new hope. On the Ed Sullivan show, the country experienced a new beginning as they were introduced to John, Paul, George and Ringo. ACT II – Growing and Changing By late 1965, the “mop-top quartet” was growing out of their ‘pop’ image and were beginning to be influenced by other artists, cultures and their own developing minds. The year premiered their second film, in color. Their hectic touring schedule was becoming intolerable, feeling that their music was not heard over the thousands of screaming fans. By August of 1966 they concluded that to stop touring and to record was the only way to grow in their newly discovered musical interests. ACT III – Psychedelia In 1967 the drug culture was in full swing. A peaceful outlook and the beginning of Flower Power was in the air around the world. More creative time was being spent in the recording studio experimenting with new sounds and recording techniques. These times led The Beatles to produce albums Magical Mystery Tour and Yellow Submarine as well as one of the era’s most influential landmark albums, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. ACT IV – End of An Era 1968/1969 was a time of turmoil, riots and war. The sixties were coming to and end, as was this musical phenomenon. Under the pressures of growing apart, having individual projects, wants and needs, a slow deterioration began. Studio hours became longer and more drawn out as more distractions entered their lives. Yet, they still released No. 1 selling albums and singles which continued to represent the changing world.

ACT I – Coming To America 1964 was a year of change and confusion for America, still mourning the death of

President Kennedy and waiting for new hope. On the Ed Sullivan show, the country experienced a new beginning as they were introduced to John, Paul, George and Ringo.

ACT II – Growing and Changing By late 1965, the “mop-top quartet” was growing out of their ‘pop’ image and were

beginning to be influenced by other artists, cultures and their own developing minds. The year premiered their second film, in color. Their hectic touring schedule was becoming

intolerable, feeling that their music was not heard over the thousands of screaming fans. By August of 1966 they concluded that to stop touring and to record was the only way to

grow in their newly discovered musical interests. ACT III – Psychedelia

In 1967 the drug culture was in full swing. A peaceful outlook and the beginning of Flower Power was in the air around the world. More creative time was being spent in the recording studio experimenting with new sounds and recording techniques. These times led The Beatles to produce albums Magical Mystery Tour and Yellow Submarine as well

as one of the era’s most influential landmark albums, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

ACT IV – End of An Era 1968/1969 was a time of turmoil, riots and war. The sixties were coming to and end, as was this musical phenomenon. Under the pressures of growing apart, having individual projects, wants and needs, a slow deterioration began. Studio hours became longer and
