(HACKETTSTOWN, NJ) -- Centenary Stage Company and the Hackettstown Rotary Club are presenting a one-night-only concert event on Saturday, May 20, 2023 at 8:00pm with the Cast of Beatlemania. The concert doubles as a fundraiser for the Hackettstown Rotary Club with tickets priced at $35 for all seats in CSC’s Sitnik Theatre of the Lackland Performing arts Center at 715 Grand Avenue in Hackettstown.
The Beatles music set the pop rock standard for most of the 1960's. The Beatles not only became a musical force but a sociological entity as well. Their hair, clothes and humor all contributed to their impact. One of the most celebrated of rock groups, The Beatles dominated rock music from the early 1960's until they formally disbanded in 1970. Originally inspired by such US performers as Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly, The Beatles recaptured most of the freshness and excitement of the earliest days of rock 'n' roll. Now, in the 2000's, The "Cast" of Beatlemania recalls the memories of that exciting era when the Fab Four ruled the world of rock 'n' roll. The Cast of Beatlemania is a US Beatles' tribute band formed in 1980 and is one of the longest running Beatles' tribute bands in the world.
The Cast Of Beatlemania, founded by Lenie Colacino, "PAUL" of the original hit Broadway show, BEATLEMANIA!, captures The Beatles while performing their greatest hits. The band takes audiences on the musical journey of the Fab Four, from their start at The Cavern Club and The Early Years of The British Invasion through the Sgt. Pepper Era to Abbey Road.
The band has toured the world, from North American to New Zealand, stiving to capture the most authentic look and sound to recreate the feeling of a true Beatles Live concert. The show uses authentic gear and vintage guitars to achieve the iconic sounds of John, Paul George and Ringo.
Experience the fab four in a completely live tribute by four musicians, as they channel John, Paul, George and Ringo.
