Both a live concert and a narration of the history of the 1960s as revealed through the music of The Beatles. The influence of the Beatles on American culture is undeniable. From hairstyles to fashion to a "musical revolution", The Beatles influenced a generation like nobody before or since. The changing times of the '60s nearly parallel the changes in the Beatles' appearance, attitudes and music. The Beatles left an ever-lasting influence on American pop culture and we tell the story of that influence through words and a live "true-to-therecord" concert.
