Second Performance of LET IT BE Added at National Theater

What if the Beatles had reunited 10 years after their break-up? This revamped production of Let It Be: A Celebration of the Music of the Beatles answers that question, and brings you the show that you never got to see. While the first half of the theatrical performance is comprised of favorites from the Beatles career, the all new second half imagines a world in which the Beatles re-united.

Let It Be: A Celebration of the Music of the Beatles comes to Washington, D.C.'s National Theatre on Saturday, April 14, 2018. Tickets for the 8:00pm performance on that day sold out within hours after going on sale. Due to popular demand, a second performance has been added on April 14 at 3:00pm.

Tickets may be purchased at TheNationalDC.com, in person at the National Theatre Box Office (Monday thru Friday from Noon to 6pm), or by calling 800-514-3849. The National Theatre is located at 1321 Pennsylvania Ave. NW in downtown Washington, D.C.

Relive the past from Ed Sullivan to Abbey Road, with favorite hits including "Hard Day's Night," "Day Tripper," "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," "Twist and Shout," "Get Back," "I Wanna Hold Your Hand," "Strawberry Fields," and then imagine the reunion that never was.

The end of the Beatles era was not thought to be in sight when the group played their last show on the roof of the Apple Offices in 1969. Imagine what would have been if The Beatles had continued their journey. Travel back to what would have been John Lennon's 40th Birthday - October 9, 1980. For one night, the Fab Four reunite on stage after a decade apart performing hits like "Back in the USSR," "Live and Let Die," "Got to Get You Into My Life," "My Sweet Lord," "Hey Jude," and many more they had never before performed live, along with other classics.

Seen by more than two million people worldwide, Let It Be: A Celebration of the Music of the Beatles made its North American debut in 2015 across the U.S. and Canada. Audiences can now enjoy the new, revamped "part two," based on the Broadway show praised as "by far the best Beatles show yet" by the New York Times.

The original production established itself as one of the West End's most popular shows when it opened in London in 2012. Showcasing the music of the world's most successful rock'n'roll band, it charted The Beatles meteoric rise from their humble beginnings in Liverpool's Cavern Club, through the height of Beatlemania, to their later studio masterpieces.
