Beatles Musical to hit LA and Broadway

2013 will be a big year for The Beatles Musical 'Backbeat'. It will first make a last stop in LA at the Ahmanson Theater, before moving on to Broadway.

The musical is set in 1960 and focuses on Stu Sutcliff (bassplayer of the Beatles and often referred to as "the Fifth Beatle") and his relationship with the Hamburg artist Astrik Kirchherr.

The musical has so far toured the world:
- Glasgow (Citizen's Theater - 2010)
- London West End (2011)
- Toronto (Royal Alexandra Theatre - 2012)

No cast has yet been announced for the LA shows, but bookings can be made. The Shows are scheduled from January 16 till February 24 2013
