Congratulations to Brianne Wright and Priscilla Fontenot, Winners of 4 tickets each to see In My Life Musical Tribue to the Beatles!
"In My Life - A Musical Theatre Tribute to the Beatles," which performs at the Paramount Bristol on Sunday, March 8 at 5:00 pm.
In My Life — A Musical Theatre Tribute to the Beatles is the award-winning musical biography of the Beatles as told by their manager Brian Epstein. The show features the performance of 33 Beatles classics by the renowned tribute band, Beatles For Sale. Widely considered by industry insiders to be the most unique Beatles show in decades, this multi-media show enables the audience to “be there” at pivotal moments in the extraordinary career of the Beatles — from Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club, to the Ed Sullivan Show, from Shea Stadium’s 50,000 + screaming fans to their live performance on the rooftop of their Apple Corp offices.

Almost everyone knows that The Beatles are one of the most acclaimed bands in rock and roll history because their music has the hypnotic qualities that make teenage girls scream and artists today and yesterday cite them as one of their influences.
While many of us don’t have the opportunity to see the two surviving Beatles Paul McCartney or Ringo Starr live in concert these days, the closest thing to watching an actual Beatles concert will be In My Life – A Musical Theatre Tribute to the Beatles at the Paramount Center for the Arts on Sunday, March 8 at 5:00 pm. The show in Bristol is part of a 125 city tour of the U.S., Canada and Australia.
You mean just another tribute band? No, because not all tribute bands are alike.
This one portrays the Beatles—John Lennon (Jonathon Fickes), Paul McCartney (Joshua Jones), George Harrison (Robert Berg) and Ringo Starr (Richard Lewis)—as authentically as possible, from their singing to the myriad of guitars used throughout the band’s decade-long career. Listening to songs like “Penny Lane” or “I Want To Hold Your Hand” from this tribute band is almost like listening to the original icons themselves. The cast members are age appropriate for the Beatles, between 19 - 30 years of age.
While the great repertoire of songs bind this musical together, the audience also gets the opportunity to relive the most important moments of The Beatles’ epic legacy, which spans the entire 1960s period. The actors that portray the band members connect with the crowd through their lovable sense of humors and cheeky banter.
As one watches The Beatles progress throughout that decade, the band's manager Brian Epstein (Murphy Martin) makes his presence known throughout the musical, narrating his side of the story starting from his discovery of the Fab Four at the Cavern Club in Liverpool up until after the release of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Epstein plays a very important role in this show, not only because he was the man who discovered the group, but he also influenced their personal touch with audiences and, of course, their fashion sense. Who could forget the image of the four dressed up in suits on their arrival at New York’s JFK Airport in 1964?
This show is not just about reliving the breakthrough Ed Sullivan Show performance on February 9,1964 that 78 million people watched on television, or reviving their deafening and packed Shea Stadium concert in 1965, it also touches on the band’s intimate moments in the recording studio. The audience observes the four in the studio as they struggle to reconcile their creative differences after Epstein’s death in 1967, a couple months after the release of Sgt. Pepper.
The San Diego Theatre Review called the show "the most original of all Beatles shows" and a "flat out great show!" The Los Angeles Times said "the show delivers," and the Idaho Statesman said "this is the ticket for you!"
“If you see one tribute show, see this one – smart and loads of fun,” Orange County Register
