What might put you off
  • Rated PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Made in 1978: an older pace and style.

A small town band makes it big, but loses track of their roots, as they get caught up into the big-time machinations of the music biz. Now, they must thwart a plot to destroy their home town. Built around the music of The Beatles, this musical uses some big name groups like Peter Frampton and Aerosmith.
