"Let It Be" presented by Broadway At The Bass

LET IT BE
play program

On a Spring Sunday afternoon, The Travelling Toe joined two Dear Friends at the matinee performance of "Let It Be".  This musical is a touring show and stopped at Bass Hall in downtown For Worth for a few days.

The concept of the musical is the evolution of The Beatles, from their early years to their break up. The tribute artists begin the show with The Beatles appearance on the Ed Sullivan show then next going to Shea Stadium.

The show's website provides this overview of the program:

The end of The Beatles era was never thought to be in sight when The Beatles played their last show on the roof of Apple Offices in 1969. Imagine what would have been if The Beatles continued their journey. Enter a time capsule and turn back to what would have been John Lennon’s 40th Birthday – October 9, 1980. For one night, the fab four come together again on stage after a decade apart performing hits like Back in the USSR, Live and Let Die, Got to Get you into My Life, My Sweet Lord, Hey Jude, Woman, Helter Skelter, Paperback Writer & many more you never got the chance to see performed live! Imagine a night that never happened, but which feels so surreal

Let It Be

We did enjoy the music of the early years but as the music transcended into the unusual we did lose interest. There have been differen Beatles tribute bands appearing at the Bass who were more entertaining and interactive with the audience.  We were rather disappointed with the concert.
