WHITE ROCK — Coast Capital Playhouse will echo Thursday (April 24) with the sounds of The Beatles at the PNE close to 40 years ago.

On a tour of Canada's western provinces, tribute band The Fab Fourever will recreate the Aug. 22, 1964, performance by the Beatles in Vancouver, using the same song sequence and many of the same introductions used that summer day. Set two will take listeners through the studio days of the Beatles, with costumes and instruments to match each era.

The Fab Fourever features Jody Tennant as Paul, Kevin Davey as John, Jean-Luc Perron as George and Paul Kaszonyi as Ringo.

The musical production includes all the hits done live, without any vocal overdubs or pre-recorded music. 

"This is a visually stunning tour de force delivered with all the raw energy, witty humour and undeniable charisma that were the hallmarks of the Fab Four," stated White Rock-based concert promoter Rob Warwick, of Rock.It Boy Entertainment. "With vintage period-specific instruments and several full-costume changes, The Fab Fourever skip no detail with this production. Their enjoyment of the music translates into a passion and an energy onstage that makes for a tremendous show."

 

Tickets for the show are $42.50, plus fees and taxes, via 604-536-7535 and www.whiterockplayers.ca.
