The Summer of Love

“The Summer of Love” is about the music and the rebellion that changed our lives forever – so be sure to wear flowers in your hair because this is going to be one big party!

The Summer of Love took place during the summer of 1967. It started with the release of The Beatles album Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band on June the 1st 1967 and closed with Woodstock in the summer of 1969. The Barnyard Theatre proudly presents a musical tribute that will relive the days of The Beatles, Woodstock, swinging London and the west coast sound of San Francisco and California. The Summer of Love was a defining moment in the 1960’s and this will be highlighted in this rocking show at The Barnyard Theatre.

Featured is music from The Beatles, The Mammas and The Pappas, Jimi Hendrix, The Byrds, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and many more. The diversity of the music from this golden era is mind blowing as we take you on a long and winding road from Swinging London with the music of The Beatles with songs like Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Penny Lane, Back in the USSR, Get Back, Come Together and of course the all time classic All You Need is Love. The song San Francisco (be sure to wear flowers in your hair) became a signature tune of this era, followed by the west coast sound with songs like Monday Monday, California Dreaming and let’s not forget the musical Hair! Also featured in the show is a tribute to The Woodstock Music Festival of August 1969 when three hundred thousand people gathered for 3 days of peace, love and music. Highlights of this infamous festival include Joe Cocker’s With a Little Help from my Friends performed by the talented SK Motubatsi and Jimi Hendrix’s Star Spangled Banner (which closed off the Festival) performed by Jason Guile.
