Hampton Inn & Suites By Hilton 851Paul the Beatle
Singer songwriter Bob Halligan Jr steps into Paul McCartney’s shoes in a one person, Beatlemania style performance called PaulTheBeatle. Framed as a conversation between Paul, the audience, and even his own inner voice, the story continually returns to the songs so many people cherish. Early in the show, John Lennon appears and asserts his creative leadership, sparking moments of humor and reflection. Through laughs, tears, and nods to changing styles, Paul charts the band’s musical journey and his own contributions, performing everything live without backing tracks or any other musicians on or off stage. As the group’s unity frays, he considers his musical path after the breakup. Audience participation is part of the experience, he takes requests, and the music alongside the portrait of the man highlights an appeal that never goes out of style.
