This national touring show features a chronological tracing of the Beatles career from their debut on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, to the psychedelic Sgt. Pepper era,  to the final trip down Abbey Road and Let It Be. It is a performance that any Beatles fan, young or old, must see. If you were there, this is a fabulous journey back in time, if you were not there, this is an amazing way to see what the Beatles were all about. This sensational performance sold out when it last played at the Bickford.
