About ‘Before Abbey Road there was Teme Street’

  • A band on the precipice of unprecedented global success

  • who had released their first LP the previous month

  • who had released their third hit single, From Me To You on the previous Thursday

  • who had met the Rolling Stones for the first time the previous evening and partied at their Chelsea flat

  • who would be playing the Albert Hall in London the following Thursday…

This band, at this time, travelled to the small market town of Tenbury Wells, deep in the Worcestershire countryside.

How did this extraordinary event come about?

How did it impact the town and how did it shape the future life of the author?

This lively account, part factual, part fiction will take you back to the birth of pop culture and forward to all that followed.

Author Andrew Lowe was born and raised in Tenbury Wells where he attended Tenbury County Secondary Modern School before going on to study at Liverpool and Kent universities.

Despite being unable to attend the dance it has loomed large in his life ever since.


About Regal School of Creative Arts performance:

Students from the Regal School of Creative Arts will perform songs from their most recent production ‘The Return of the Blue Meanies’, a new musical based on life after the Yellow Submarine written by Dr Mia Gordon with original music composed by Pete Thorogood.


About Regal Community Theatre performance:

Regal Community Theatre will be performing 'C'mon C'mon' - a comedy play - a Beatles tribute, written and directed by their very own Jeremy Boaz.

C’mon C’mon
It is the 15th April 1963, the day the Beatles came to Tenbury Wells. Based on true facts, this fictional play takes a light-hearted look to how a typical family might have reacted to the occasion. The Beatles had just had their first number one ‘Please, Please Me’ but were still relatively unknown.

Using many references to the lyrics from the song, can teenagers Jenny and Danny persuade their parents to let them go and see THE BEATLES?

Roger McGough: Alive and Gigging

The Regal is proud to lead on a weekend festival 'Beatles Fest Tenbury: Before Abbey Road there was Teme Street...' Celebrating 60 years since the Beatles played in Tenbury. This event is part of the weekends celebrations.

Roger McGough, the ‘Living proof of himself,’ and President of the Poetry Society not only helped kickstart the musical careers of Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix, but inspired hundreds, if not thousands of young poets (well, quite a few), on their poetic journeys.

85 years old and at that awkward age now between birth and death, he puts on a brave face and takes to the stage for Tenbury’s Beatles Weekend with a show featuring new poems as well as old favourites.

The show takes audiences on a journey back to key moments of his life. McGough reflects on his Liverpool childhood before World War II, with memories and poems including The Overall Winner and Learning to Read and a throw-back to the 60’s and poems of the Mersey Beat. The evening will include the poem To Macca’s Trousers, celebrating the Beatles and the blue mohair pants that were given to him by Mike McGear, his band member, and the brother of Paul McCartney when they were both members of the hit Liverpool group The Scaffold. New verses have been added for Lily the Pink which takes a playful update on the Scaffold’s 1968 classic.

As well as laughs, there will be poems about growing old; A Joy to be Old, A Cure for Ageing and Let me Die an Old Man’s Death, which aptly round up the new show.

DISOUNT on every 2nd Ticket!
Tickets are £17.50 but if you buy a pair of tickets it is discounted to £25!

A Twist & Shout In Tenbury Wells with Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn
Apr

A Twist & Shout In Tenbury Wells with Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn

The Beatles came to Tenbury Wells on 15 April 1963, playing at Bridge Hotel in the early revs of their rise to being the greatest entertainment phenomenon ever.

Six months after stopping in Tenbury the Beatles were topping the London Palladium; ten months after Tenbury they were headlining Carnegie Hall, and their triumphs extended without pause right through the Sixties. They were huge stars then, and somehow, 60 years on, they’re huge stars still.

Please join the crowds at our Regal Cinema to see Beatles expert Mark Lewisohn guide us through that history and launch our diamond anniversary festival of the Beatles in Tenbury Wells.

Mark Lewisohn – the writer – is the Beatles world authority. His many successful books include Recording Sessions (1988, recently republished) and Tune In (2013), which won the inaugural Penderyn Prize and is the first in a comprehensive three-volume history, The Beatles: All These Years. Mark is presently at work on volume two.

Reviews of Mark Lewisohn’s book Tune In:

‘A triumph. Not only an enthralling account of the Beatles’ origins, far superior to anything that has gone before, but also an essential piece of social history.’ – The Times

‘Lewisohn’s work stands as a monumental triumph, a challenge to the discipline of biography itself. If only all important subjects had their Lewisohn.’ – Washington Post

Mark Lewisohn – the speaker – has talked Beatles at literary festivals in Edinburgh, Oxford, Bath, Cheltenham and more, and at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, Lincoln Center in New York and the Smithsonian in Washington DC. He has twice presented his own theatre show, Hornsey Road in 2019 and Beatles/Evolver:62 last October.

Review of Mark Lewisohn’s 2022 stage show Evolver:62:

‘Lewisohn is an engaging presenter who finds clever ways to illustrate the story. One of the things I like about him is that although he’s gone to enormous lengths to acquire all this information, he never seems proprietorial about it. He likes sharing his treasure, using it to enrich everyone else’s enjoyment of a story that will never be repeated.’ – Richard Williams, thebluemoment.com
