It’s more than 50 years since the Fab Four – John, Paul, George and Ringo – released their first single and wowed the world.

Charting the band’s meteoric rise from their humble beginnings in Liverpool’s Cavern Club, through the height of Beatlemania, to their later studio masterpieces, the stage show Let It Be is packed with more than 40 of their greatest hits.

From Twist and Shout to She Loves You to Yesterday, Hey Jude and of course, Let It Be, the show has become one of the West End’s most popular shows.

Seen by more than a million people worldwide, the show comes to Canterbury’s Marlowe Theatre next week.

The latest tour began on the 53rd anniversary of The Beatles’ second single, Please Please Me, which was released in January 1963.

The show attracts fans of live music, as well as the dedicated die-hard Beatles’ enthusiasts.

Let It Be will be at the Marlowe from Monday, June 6 to Saturday, June 11. Tickets from £18, by calling 01227 787787, or visiting marlowetheatre.com.

It will also be at the Orchard Theatre in Dartford on Monday, June 27. For tickets call 01322 220000 or visit orchardtheatre.co.uk.
