Stage sensation Lady Beatle is bound for 32 venues around Australia as part of a three-month national magical mystery tour across the country.
Presented by The Little Red Company and Critical Stages Touring, this critically-acclaimed musical memorial to The Beatles again stars Green Room Award-winner Naomi Price (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical; Ladies in Black; The Voice Australia) as the titular character, revealing a whimsical tale inspired by true events and set to a soundtrack of The Fab Four's biggest hits.
Lady Beatle is more than simply a tribute to one of the biggest bands of the past century, as Price and co-writer Adam Brunes weave a poignant, heartfelt original narrative through the Liverpool quartet's immortal back catalogue.
Iconic songs including Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds, Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, Here Comes the Sun and Penny Lane are reimagined, reinterpreted and performed live by Price, who gets by with a little help from her friends - an incredible four-piece band.
"Lady Beatle is an enigmatic and wholly original character; she could be The Beatles' biggest fan, or she could be someone entirely different and I take such delight in teasing out her true identity until she makes her swansong," Price said.
"When Adam and I delved into The Beatles' remarkable catalogue to create the show, we discovered their world was populated with seemingly ordinary people - the barber, banker, fireman and nurse in Penny Lane; the meter maid star of Lovely Rita; or the teenage runaway who inspired She's Leaving Home - ordinary people who have unknowingly become part of an extraordinary musical and cultural legacy."
Lady Beatle is an homage to the characters whose stories might never have been told were it not for four ordinary lads from Liverpool. The pop culture cabaret wowed audiences and critics alike when it debuted in 2017 at La Boite's Roundhouse Theatre and Price is thrilled the show returns to twist and shout through 32 venues across Australia.
"With an electrifying live band, psychedelic lighting and dazzling special effects, Lady Beatle delivers an exceptional night out for all Beatles fans," Price said.
Price previously visited Bathurst in 2016, wowing audiences with Rumour Has It, a tribute to the music of superstar singer Adele.
