The Fab Four hit Broadway this summer in Let It Be, a spectacular concert experience direct from London's West End, where it continues its celebrated open-ended run, featuring 40 of The Beatles' greatest hits. Born as a West End production to celebrate the legendary band's 50th anniversary, Let It Be uses state-of-the-art projection technology and 3D sound to put audiences at the heart of The Beatles' meteoric rise from their humble beginnings in Liverpool's Cavern Club, through the heights of Beatlemania, to their later studio masterpieces with live performances of songs including "Twist and Shout," "She Loves You" and "Drive My Car," "Yesterday," "Hey Jude," "Come Together" and, of course, "Let It Be."

LET IT BE began previews Tuesday, July 16, 2013 at Broadway's St. James Theatre and opened on Wednesday night, July 24th. The show will play a limited engagement through December 29, 2013. Meet the cast below!
