Beatlemania Again National Touring Stage Show Comes to Camden County College on Sunday

Relive the craze that swept the nation in the '60's with Beatlemania Again rescheduled for Jan. 29 at Camden County College.

GLOUCESTER TOWNSHIP, NJ – The Beatlemania Again performance originally scheduled for January 7 takes place this Sunday, January 29, 2 p.m. at Camden County College's Dennis Flyer Theater. Come on out and relive the craze that swept the nation in the ‘60’s when The Beatles took the world by storm.

This live stage show takes audiences on a musical journey through three eras of The Beatles’ remarkable career. It is presented by Mainstage Center for the Arts.

The show begins with “Meet The Beatles” as the group arrives in America for their 1964 debut on the Ed Sullivan Show. The production captures the energy and excitement of The Beatles live performances with the original sounds of the albums.

Next, the performance transforms into “Sgt Pepper.” The Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album, released in 1967 is widely regarded as one of the most influential recordings of all time. It spent 27 weeks at the top of the albums chart in the UK. Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the album as Beatlemania Again performs its songs with no sequencing, backing tracks or offstage musicians.

Then, the closing act, “Get Back,” features hits from The Beatles’ final albums, Abbey Road and Let it Be. Performing hits from 1968 to 1970, Beatlemania Again brings to the stage the charisma and emotion that was hidden behind the walls of Apple and Abbey Road studios.

Rich Morello, Ringo in Beatlemania Again and Gloucester Township resident, said, "Mainstage does an amazing job keeping the arts alive in South Jersey, and we are proud to be a part of it. We are very excited to be returning to the Dennis Flyer Theatre at Camden County College, a beautiful concert venue.An amazing audience filled it last year, singing along to every song. It’s going to be a fun evening."

Michael Schreiner, one of those in the audience at last January’s event said, “Beatlemania Again literally took me back in time. When I was 15, The Beatles came to America and I did not have a chance to see them live. But, I’m sure the performance I saw by Beatlemania Again was equal to, if not better than the Fab Four. If you didn’t have the opportunity to see them last year, please do."
