Beatles For Sale has been entertaining audiences throughout New England since 2007 with a repertoire that consists of over 150 SONGS from the Beatle catalogue. This band of musicians was drawn together by their love of Beatles music and the desire to keep the music alive, bringing it to a whole new generation of Beatles fans. But don't expect to see Beatle wigs or Sgt. Pepper suits. Beatles For Sale says the most important thing about the show is the music. What you will see is a fun and energetic performance complete with original instrumentation and vocal harmonies that are as accurate as possible to the original Beatles recordings. There are no "sampling" or "midi tricks" - everything you hear is performed completely live.

Beatles For Sale is: Joe Budroe - Bass, vocals; Steve Caisse - Guitars, vocals; Mike “Mingo” Christian - Drums, vocals; and Dan Kirouac - Keyboards, acoustic guitar, vocals. Check them out at http://www.beatlesforsale.net/

PURCHASE A SEAT PLAQUE!
You can become an important and enduring part of OPAC when you “Have a Seat” — your name engraved on a permanent commemorative brass plaque, attached to a seat in the theater. Your donation helps the capital improvements fund--for curtains, lighting, and other theater needs. People who come to performances will notice your name and appreciate
your support for the arts.
Or, buy a plaque as a gift for someone else—a new graduate, your parents or child, a favorite teacher, a friend, or someone you admire in the community. Click here for a brochure to learn more about the
seat plaque campaign.
