MANILA, Philippines – The latest Beatles tribute show “Let It Be” is set to hit London’s West End in July at the St. James Theatre.

“Let It Be” is the most recent of The Beatles anthology shows following “Rain,” which ran for 9 months on Broadway in 2010 to 2011; “Backbeat,” a biographical musical; and “Love,” a Cirque du Soleil production.

The shows paid homage to the band’s musical legacy via multimedia performances.

Similarly, “Let It Be,” produced on Broadway by Jeff Parry, will provide audiences with a spectacle of live musicians and state-of-the-art projection technology, aimed at paying homage to the band’s most well-loved hits, including “Yesterday,” “Hey Jude,” “Come Together,” and of course, “Let It Be.”

The show will highlight songs from the latter part of the band’s career, when they no longer did live performances.

“Let It Be” is expected to run until December.
