"They’ve been performing for over 20 years and they kind of follow The Beatles through their time together as a band. It kind of starts with the early 60s Ed Sullivan era, and then goes through the Sgt. Pepper’s era, and goes through the psychedelic era," said Chenango Arts Council Administrative Assistant Mary Beth Miller. "It kind of goes through the entire Beatles repertoire, and they dress up in costumes and they sing the songs, and each of the band members plays one of the Beatle characters."


"Beatlemania Again" also exclusively plays Rickenbacker, Gretsch, Epiphone, Fender, and Hofner guitars, along with Black Oyster Pearl Ludwig drums, and iconic Vox amplifiers, to add to the authenticity of their performances.


Tickets are $18 for Arts Council members and $20 for non-members, with discounts for students and seniors. To purchase a ticket, visit ChenangoArts.org.

It’ll be a great way to celebrate Beatles music and their influence on culture, and it’ll cover all the different kinds of art that they put out there, because it was very varied."
