The internationally-acclaimed Beatles concert, RAIN - A Tribute To The Beatles, makes its debut at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County with a limited FIVE-show engagement from Friday, October 8 through Sunday, October 10, 2010 in the Sanford and Dolores Ziff Ballet Opera House.

RAIN - A Tribute To The Beatles is a special addition to the BROADWAY IN MIAMI 2010-2011 season, presented by the Adrienne Arsht Center, Broadway Across America-Miami and presenting sponsor Bank of America.

In a show the Denver Post calls "the next best thing to seeing The Beatles," RAIN boasts a repertoire of nearly 200 Beatlemaniac favorites, ranging from such beloved songs as "Yesterday" and "Hey Jude" to classic hits including "Revolution" and "Come Together." From the early hits to later classics that The Beatles never got the chance to play live, this multi-media concert recaptures the era through all phases of The Beatles' astounding musical career. RAIN covers the Fab Four from their very first Ed Sullivan Show appearance through the Abbey Road album, the psychedelic late 60s and their long-haired hippie, hard-rocking rooftop days.

Like The Beatles, the onstage members of RAIN, are not only supreme musicians, but electrifying performers in their own right. For the four longtime band members - Joey Curatolo (Paul McCartney), Joe Bithorn (George Harrison), Ralph Castelli (Ringo Starr) and Steve Landes (John Lennon), with a little help from their friend Mark Lewis (keyboards, percussion) - the music is first and foremost. For more than two decades, RAIN has distinguished itself by focusing on details, always being faithful to The Beatles with the ultimate goal of delivering a perfect note-for-note performance. All the music is performed live, with no pre-recorded tapes or sequences.
