NEWS RELEASE
MIDLAND CULTURAL CENTRE
*************************
The Midland Cultural Centre is thrilled to announce an exciting live musical documentary event, Becoming the Beatles, featuring the remarkable talents of Yale-educated musician and storyteller Haley Marie.
This captivating performance is set to take place on Friday, Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. at the Midland Cultural Centre.
Becoming the Beatles is definitely not a tribute act. It’s a show about four boys: one born during an air raid, one who had to reverse the strings on his guitar to make sense of it, one who stayed up late practising with tears in his eyes and another who couldn’t read or write until he was eight. It’s also the story of a visionary young producer who was desperate to find his way out of the ‘comedy division’ at Parlophone Records.
With a blend of musical analysis and years of research at her disposal, Haley Marie delivers a world-class performance, exploring the extraordinary rise to fame, the connection to classical music, and the transformative impact the Beatles had on the world.
Hear first-hand how the band used flour and water to fasten their logo to the side of their van en route to Germany, how that same band was turned down by 80 per cent of the English recording market yet defied the odds to become the most successful musical group in history.
Haley Marie, a Yale-educated performer, musician, playwright, and storyteller, brings her passion for breaking the rules in a meticulous way to the stage. Haley Marie and Aurelia Productions have toured extensively through North America, Canada, and Europe, captivating audiences with their unique blend of music, storytelling, and visual art.
Don’t miss this unforgettable experience as Midland Cultural Centre presents Becoming the Beatles on Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. Join us for a night of music, history, and the extraordinary journey of the Beatles.
