ACT 1 ... BEATLEMANIA
1964
… Four lads from Liverpool ignite the stage of the Ed Sullivan Theater. With toe-tapping catchy hits and their unforgettable charm,
Beatlemania takes the world by storm.
Day Tripper - The Beatles Experience captures the raw energy and playful spontaneity of The Beatles’ earliest performances. Every detail of
these performances has been painstakingly recreated. Even the most scrutinizing fans are impressed by their note-for-note 3 part harmonies,
exact instrumentation and incredible likeness.
The cast embodies nuances in mannerisms, voice, and accents that define each Beatle’s persona. The casual wit and rebellious personalities
that won the hearts of teenagers all over the world comes to life... You will feel what it was like to be there.
ACT 2 ... SHEA STADIUM
1965
… The Beatles were on top of the world. From
world tours to movie sets to recording studios, they were
jet-setting across continents.
In the studio, they were pushing the creative limits of
popular music. Lyrics were taking on deeper meanings and
the addition of elaborate orchestration and studio effects
became more and more common.
However, technology at the time did not permit The
Beatles to properly reproduce many of these newer songs
on stage.
Using state of the art orchestral sounds and live effect
processing, Day Tripper commands the stage to recapture
the days of Help, Rubber Soul and Revolver in stunning
detail.
ACT 3 ... SGT PEPPER’S
1966
… Frustrated with the hardships of touring and fuelled by experimentation, The Beatles decided to stop touring and
focus their efforts in the studio. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band completely re-invented the concept of pop music.
Free from the constraints of having to perform their music live, The Beatles were able to let their creativity soar, creating sounds
no one had ever heard. Many of these songs remain, to this day, nearly impossible to recreate live.
Day Tripper reproduces every one of these songs, live before your eyes, without any pre-recorded background music! Songs
like "A Day in the Life" and "Strawberry Fields Forever" sound so close to the album, you won't believe your ears.
ACT 4 ... SOLO ACOUSTIC
1968… The Beatles’ songwriting became less collaborative and more
personal. Many of the songs written for the “White Album” were written
on acoustic guitar while in India.
Paul was showcasing his independence as a writer and performer
through songs like "Blackbird" and "Mother Nature's Son". George was
also becoming every bit as credible a songwriter with classics
like "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", while John was quickly
becoming an unwavering and vocal political activist.
In this intense and intimate part of the show, share a rare one-on-one
moment with each member, before John, Paul, George and Ringo
take the stage together again one last time.
ACT 5 ... ABBEY ROAD
1969
… Although Beatlemania was coming to an end
and The Beatles were growing further apart, many regard this
stage of their career as their best. The highly experimental
“White Album”, the back to basics rock and roll attitude of
“Let it Be”, and the refined arrangements in “Abbey Road”
encompass everything that they had learned over their
remarkable career.
High energy songs like "Back in the USSR", "Get Back" and
"Revolution", as well as captivating performances such as
"Dear Prudence" and "Golden Slumbers", mark the climax of
this incredibly intense show.
Experience The Beatles together again in their finest ……
and final hours.
