1964: The Tribute- Live for 2 nights only! JUNE 15 & 16
You'll have to look twice - and listen closely - and still it will be hard to believe that you're not at a concert of the Fab Four when "1964: The Tribute" returns by popular demand to Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre for concerts on June 15 and 16.

Mark, Gary, Tom and Terry, who portray John, Paul, George and Ringo, have paid attention to so many details of The Beatles that they have developed a remarkable likeness in both look and sound to the lads from Liverpool. They've been paying their tribute around the world for nearly 25 years to great acclaim. Rolling Stone calls 1964: The Tribute the "best Beatles tribute on Earth!" And some of those closest to The Beatles have also been impressed. Alistair Taylor, former president of Apple Records for The Beatles, said: "The resemblance was uncanny; it sent shivers down my spine. It was just like the boys. Never have I seen another group go to such detail ... born again Beatles!"

Louise Harrison, sister of George Harrison, was so moved after seeing a "1964" performance, that she had a party in her home in their honor.

"The idea behind ‘1964' is to recreate what you would have seen if you had actually gone to one of their performances," Mark Benson (John Lennon) said.

The tribute band has opted to focus on the Beatles of the mid-‘60s era, before "the psychedelic, like ‘Sergeant Pepper'" time, Benson said.
"All of the music is about love. I like the fact that parents and kids together can come and see the show," he added. "It's not offensive. It's good, clean fun."
