John, Paul, George & Ringo told us, “All you need is love.” ALL TOGETHER NOW shows that you need love plus a whole lot of hard work to create Love—The Beatles’ collaboration with Cirque Du Soleil.

Love was George Harrison’s dream, inspired by the playful yet daring artistic genius of his friend Guy Laliberté. The two envisioned combining The Beatles’ music and lyrics with the magical spectacle of Cirque Du Soleil to create a multimedia live performance. Unfortunately, Harrison didn’t live to see it realized, but fortunately for us, his widow Olivia, along with Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and John Lennon’s widow Yoko Ono came together to ensure the dream was brought to life.

For many people, the songs of The Beatles are the soundtrack of our lives, and for true fans of the Fab Four, the tracks are sacrosanct. Only Sir George Martin (The Beatles’ original producer), who partnered with his son Giles, could have created the first Grammy Award-winning Beatles album of the 21st century.

Adrian Wills’ faithful behind-the-scenes story of this unprecedented partnership takes place in rehearsal, in the sound studio and mostly on the custom stage at the Mirage in Las Vegas. The film captures the everyday drama of directing a show with hundreds of performers, thousands of costumes and acrobatic and dance spectacles that dazzle the eye.  ALL TOGETHER NOW offers a rare one-of-a-kind insight into the creative process and invites audiences to see firsthand the magic that is the music of The Beatles.

Adrian Wills is scheduled to attend the Opening Night screening, along with artists and creative people associated with both The Beatles and Cirque du Soleil.
