TWIST and shout as the Theatre Royal presents The Mersey Beatles, Liverpool's No. 1 tribute to the Fab Four on 25 February.

The Mersey Beatles have been together since 1999 and they have been resident at the Cavern Club for the past 18 months.

They are other Jason "John" Murray, Robbie "George" Hughes, Brian "Ringo" Ambrose and Steven "Paul" Howard.

Their first tour is entirely self-managed and self-funded but the band expects it to be the opening of a brand new chapter in their story.

Steven said: "We'll be taking the audience back to the early 60s and getting them to imagine they are at a fantasy final 1966 performance at the Cavern.

"In the second half we'll be counting down the years with the hits from 1970 back to 1967.

"We want all our Beatles fans to get their Ticket to Ride and join us on our Magical Mystery Tour."
