originally published: 08/16/2021

(HACKETTSTOWN, NJ) -- Centenary Stage Company’s 2021 Summer Season will close on Saturday, August 21 with The British Invasion Years. This event is a fundraiser for the Hackettstown Rotary Club and will have 2 performances on Saturday, August 21 at 5:00pm and 8:00pm with a live stream of the 8:00pm performance available. Both performances will take place in the Sitnik Theatre of the Lackland Performing Arts Center at 715 Grand Avenue, Hackettstown, NJ.

The British Invasion Years are more than just the Beatles, this nostalgic musical tribute spans the entire 60s British Invasion era with music from both sides of the Atlantic, and is three acts in one! The first act includes songs by iconic British groups such as The Zombies, Dave Clark Five, The Rolling Stones, The Hollies, Herman's Hermits, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Manfred Mann and many others. The American Response follows, with music by such legendary artists as The Monkees, Simon & Garfunkel, The Beach Boys, The Mamas and The Papas, The Turtles, Paul Revere & The Raiders, to name just a few. This journey through the 1960s concludes with an extraordinary finale with songs from the four lads that started it all– The Beatles! The group has shared the stage with legendary artists such as The Beach Boys, Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band, Leon Russell, and many, many more.

This event is a fundraiser for the Hackettstown Rotary Club. The Hackettstown Rotary is a group of professionals with a dedicated focus on making positive changes to the community. Throughout the year the Hackettstown Rotary holds different fundraisers to help give back to the community and make a difference.
