This is the first production that Apple Corps Ltd. has participated in. Sir George Martin, who produced all of The Beatles albums, and his son Giles Martin, also a record producer, are the music producers for the show. The production plays at The Mirage in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The show opened June 2 for previews, and the gala opening was June 30, and Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Cynthia Lennon, Julian Lennon, Yoko Ono, Olivia Harrison, Dhani Harrison and Sir George Martin were all in attendance, making it the biggest reunion of The Beatles family since the breakup of the group. When the performance ended, Paul, Ringo, Dhani, Yoko and George Martin went on stage where Paul shouted, "This is for John and George!"
Music from the original recording sessions was used and has been re-orchestrated. Of the 130 songs sampled, 27 new songs were produced, blending from one to the next. The story takes the audience through the band's path to stardom, their rise to fame, psychedelic and spiritual works and breakup. The culmination is in the "reunion," represented by the Love production itself.
