Algonquin Arts Theatre presents Yesterday and Today: The Interactive Beatles Experience

(MANASQUAN, NJ) -- Algonquin Arts Theatre presents Yesterday and Today: The Interactive Beatles Experience on Saturday, April 18, 2026 at 2:00pm. This is a unique experience that puts the audience in control.

Performed by brothers Billy, Matthew and Ryan McGuigan and their band, the show relies on the audience to choose the entire setlist. Before the show, audience members are asked to fill out a request card with their name, favorite Beatles song, and the reason why they chose that song. Minutes before the show starts, these cards are collected and a custom setlist is created based on the audience’s requests.

Throughout the night, the band weaves the audiences personal stories, and the McGuigans’ own heartfelt memories attached to the Beatles’ music, into the performance, creating a one-of-a-kind narrative that makes every show different.

Yesterday and Today: The Interactive Beatles Experience is an engaging, interactive celebration where your audiences memories, the McGuigan brothers’ passion, and the timeless songs of the Beatles come together in an unforgettable way.

Tickets range from $42-$49 and are available for purchase online (discounts for seniors and students). Algonquin Arts Theatre is located at 60 Abe Voorhees Drive in Manasquan, New Jersey.
