SURREY — A new cast is part of the Beatlemania On Tour stage production coming to Surrey this summer.
The full-on tribute show will feature the hits of John, Paul, George and Ringo at the Bell Performing Arts Centre on Thursday, July 6, show producers announced Wednesday.
The Sullivan Heights-area theatre is among nine venues on a regional tour.
“Fans can expect a fresh experience with state-of-the-art updates to production and lighting and revamps to the show’s huge repertoire of replica Beatles costuming,” noted Winnipeg-based Sound Strategy Communications.
“All of the Beatles’ biggest and most treasured hits will still be performed live – in their original key and on replica Beatles instruments – with unseen attention to detail creating the sincerest Beatles sound around.”
The show cast features Cameron Charters (as Paul McCartney), Zac Coombs (John Lennon), Brent McMullen (George Harrison) and Ben Harper (Ringo).
“There is so much detail to get right for a show of this calibre,” Charters staged. “Aside from getting the music spot-on, we’re expected to nail the characters, voices, little movements. It’s a lot of work but it’s worth it when you see the end result and know that real Beatles’ fans will appreciate it.”
The tour starts in Bend, Oregon, on June 29 and ends on July 10 at Nanaimo’s Port Theatre.
Tickets for the show at Surrey’s Bell are $22.75 for children and $50.75 for adults, via Ticketmaster.ca.
