Liverpool Legends
BRANSON, Mo., November 17, 2012 — At a recent news conference, Lynn Meredith, General Manager, of the Andy Williams Moon River Theatre, announced that as part of carrying on the entertainment legacy of Andy Williams that the Andy Williams Moon River Theatre “will continue to be the home of great singers and exciting entertainers.” After pointing out that the 2013 schedule would be out soon he announced that Daniel O’Donnell will be moving to the Moon River Theatre starting in November of 2013.
This week, the theatre announced the second of the outstanding and exciting acts that will be appearing at the theatre, Louise Harrison’s “Liverpool Legends.” They will be appearing at the theatre during the summer of 2013 in “‘The Complete Beatles’,a full-scale Beatles extravaganza like you have never seen them before.” Meredith said, “It’s a total phenomenon that The Beatles are bigger and more popular today than ever before, and to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of their arrival in America, we wanted to build the biggest and best production around Liverpool Legends and take their show to a new level.”
“’We are so excited to bring our show to The Andy Williams Moon River Theater,’ said Marty Scott, who portrays George Harrison in Liverpool Legends. ‘It’s going to be our biggest show ever! Andy was one of the first people to come to our show when we came to Branson in 2006 and he was always very supportive of us and told us how much he loved the Beatles and appreciated their music.'”
“Recently, Liverpool Legends were chosen over every other Beatles tribute show in the world by top television and film producer Jerry Bruckheimer (CSI, Pirates of The Caribbean, National Treasure) to portray the band that changed the course of music and the world forever.
“Members of Liverpool Legends have toured the world, playing in historic venues such as Carnegie Hall, The Cavern Club in Liverpool, recording at the famed Abbey Road Studios in London and performing with Denny Laine (co-founder of Wings with Paul McCartney), Pete Best (the original Beatles drummer) and the Boston Pops. They appeared on The Travel Channel’s “Beatlemania Britain” and headlined “International Beatles Week” in Liverpool where 100,000 Beatles fans jammed Victoria Street to hear them in concert.
“Liverpool Legends perform songs spanning the entire career of The Beatles and on through the solo years. With precise attention to every musical detail, along with costume changes, vintage instruments and special effects, Liverpool Legends will make you feel like you are watching the real thing!”
“This is yet another example of the quality and variety of the live entertainment that Branson offers on a daily basis,” said Tammy Johnson, the Director of Operations for the Branson Tourism Center. “What a wonderful way to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Beatles arrival in America,” she continued.
