As a musical entity The Beatles have not existed for over 50 years, yet their story, their personalities and most importantly their music continue to fascinate and resonate.  Thanks to a treasure chest of memorable songs and an uncanny ability to chart fresh musical direction with each new album, The Beatles remain one of the world’s most popular and iconic bands.  With performance and interview clips we’ll trace the arc of the Beatles career from their development in Liverpool, through Beatlemania, into their psychedelic phase and finally their dissolution.
