Direct from Broadway, Rain- A Tibute to the Beatles, made its debut at the Long Center in Austin on the 20th of September where it will run until Sunday, the 25th. It has been said to be the next best thing to have seen the Beatles.
The show is presented by Broadway Across American, The Long Center and Texas Performing Arts.
You can't help but hear a Beatles song and immediately recall where you were back in time when it was first released, if you are of age to have been around when it was first released. Boomers will know, but so will their children and grandchildren, because it is music that has never died. It is a great concert to share with everyone in the family.
My guest said it provided her with memories of songs from her childhood. She also enjoyed the change in costume and background on the stage for the songs.
It is hard not to get involved in audience participation when so many around you are into the show. My guest also thought it was great audience participation, with people singing and dancing in their seats.
Overall, both of us recommend not missing this Broadway Across America show that came to Austin. You still have a chance this weekend.
The show on Friday the 23rd will be at 8pm, but on Saturday, the shows are at 2pm and 8pm and Sunday at 1pm and 7pm. Tickets are available at the Long Center Box office, www.longcenter.org or you can call 512.474.LONG (5664).
