The Australian Bee Gees Show –  A musical tribute to the Brothers Gibb

Coming to The Mahaffey Sunday, March 31, 2019 at 7 p.m., the Australian Bee Gees Show – A Tribute to the Bee Gees is a multi-media theatrical concert experience that takes a nostalgic trip through the legacy of Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb.

You’ll hear hits like “Stayin’ Alive,” “I’ve Gotta Get a Message to You,” “How Deep Is Your Love,” “Jive Talkin’,” and “Night Fever.” The performers’ authentic take on the trio’s clothes, style and moves showcases five decades of the Brothers Gibbs’ success as rock and disco legends, while audiences groove to their unforgettable music!

Together for more than 20 years, the Australian Bee Gees Show has mastered the look, sound and personality of the adored trio, while cementing their reputation as the world’s leading Bee Gees show.

Tickets: $35, $45 and $55

Strut Productions Presents “1964”…The Tribute

Back in 1964, a historical moment happened when Ed Sullivan brought The Beatles to his “Really Big Show” in New York City and to the Napoleon Ballroom of the Deauville Beach Resort in Miami Beach. It was the U.S.  debut of The Beatles, introduced as “Great Britain’s cultural gift to America,“ who went on to become one of the biggest and most influential music groups in history. See the magic recreated as “1964”…The Tribute makes its stop at The Mahaffey Theater on Friday, April 5, 2019 at 8 p.m.

Going strong since the 1980s, “1964” …The Tribute has earned a reputation as the most spectacularly accurate – in both sound and appearance – Fab Four tribute band (Rolling Stone, in fact, calls them “The best Beatles tribute band on Earth”). They are superb musicians and singers.

Performing songs from the PRE–Sgt. Pepper era, “1964” …The Tribute astonishingly recreates an early ‘60s live Beatles concert, with period instruments, clothing, hairstyles, and onstage banter. In addition to all the beloved hits, from “She Loves You” to “Eight Days a Week,” they also perform numerous songs (such as “Michelle” and “And Your Bird Can Sing”) the Beatles themselves never played in concert! Notably, “1964” has performed at Carnegie Hall 14 times.

Tickets: $43.50, $48.50, $53.50
