RAIN – A Tribute to The Beatles will air on WLIW (Channel 21) on Sunday, September 12 at 4pm, Tuesday, September 14 at 2:30am, and Thursday, September 16 at 10pm. In addition to performances, the 90-minute special will also include interviews with performer-creators Joey Curatolo and Steve Landes, who play Paul McCartney and John Lennon.

As previously announced, the show will play a five-performance engagement at Atlanta’s Fox Theatre, September 17-19 before beginning a limited engagement at Broadway’s Neil Simon Theatre in October.

RAIN offers a full range of The Beatles’ discography live onstage, including songs that the group recorded in the studio but never performed for an audience. The concert aims to recapture The Beatles in all of the phases, including their historic concert at Shea Stadium, their work in the late 60s, and their long-haired hippie, hard-rocking rooftop days. The multimedia production offers a fusion of historical footage and live camera-work.
