EPSTEIN the Play





A brand new play about one of Liverpool’s favourite sons and one of the world’s most successful music entrepreneurs is to premiere in Liverpool, in a year that celebrates 50 years since The Beatles came together and will be the first major production at the Epstein Theatre. EPSTEIN is a long-awaited theatrical production celebrating the life of former Beatles manager Brian Epstein. This multi-media play with live music, created by Jen Heyes and Andrew Sherlock, written by Andrew Sherlock, directed by Jen Heyes and runs from 15 November to 1 December 2012.

The play – which charts Brian Epstein’s adult life and illustrious career from his drama school days to managing the world’s biggest pop group – is now fully realised, having since its announcement evolved from a one man show to a ‘two-hander’, where a second actor playing various characters will interact with the character of Brian Epstein, and also provide the musical element to the show.
Brian Epstein was best known as a music entrepreneur and legendary manager of The Beatles and was the person responsible for their rise to mega-stardom all over the world. He also managed other popular artists such as Gerry & The Pacemakers, Billy J Kramer, The Foremost, The Dakotas and Cilla Black.
EPSTEIN is brought to you by the newly formed Bill Elms & Jen Heyes Productions Ltd (Tales from Haunted Liverpool, Tales From Charles Dickens), written by Andrew Sherlock (Wall Talks and The Shankly Show) and directed by Jen Heyes (Blood Wedding, I love Vinegar Vera and Wall Talks).
EPSTEIN is sponsored by Gregory Abrams Davidson LLP Solicitors (Matthew Street and Penny Lane) and supported by The Cavern and The Liverpool Echo.
