RAIN - A Tribute to The Beatles On Broadway has been extended by popular demand and will now run through Sunday, January 9 at the Neil Simon Theatre (250 West 52nd Street). Previews begin Tuesday, October 19 with the official opening scheduled for Tuesday, October 26 at 6:30 PM. Tickets for the additional week go on sale this Friday, October 8.  

In a show the Los Angeles Times calls "a two-hour homage to pop music's most brilliant gem!" RAIN performs such beloved songs as "I Want To Hold Your Hand," "Hard Day's Night," "Yesterday," "Twist and Shout," With A Little Help From My friends," "Eleanor Rigby," "Strawberry Fields," "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," "Hey Jude," "When I'm 64," "I Am The Walrus," "Revolution," "Come Together" and much more from their repertoire of over 200 Beatlemaniac favorites.

For the creators of RAIN - the original band - Joey Curatolo (vocals, bass, guitar, piano), Joe Bithorn (vocals, lead guitar, guitar synthesizer), Ralph Castelli (vocals, drums, percussion) andSteve Landes (vocals, guitar, piano, harmonica) -- all of whom performed in touring productions of the Broadway production of Beatlemania)), the music is first and foremost. For more than two decades, RAIN has distinguished itself by focusing on details, always being faithful to The Beatles. All the music is performed live, with no pre-recorded tapes or sequences. RAIN approaches The Beatles music with the same respect a classical musician treats Mozart.
