Saturday Evening Headline
Entertainment - October 13, 2007
The Fab Four
The Ultimate Beatles Tribute is a full-scale production. The multimedia presentation features four actor/musicians playing John, Paul, George and
Ringo. The ensemble creates uncanny, note-perfect renditions of the catalogue of classic Beatles songs, and the show traces the group’s
progress from the youthful innocence of “Love Me Do” to the wistful grown-up quality of “Let It Be.”
The Fab Four is elevated far above every other Beatles tribute due to their precise attention to detail. With uncanny, note-for-note live renditions of Beatles' songs,
The Fab Four will make you think you are watching the real thing.
For more information, Visit
the Fab Four Web Site.
